PMC-Sierra Evolves MIPS-based Microprocessor Architectures

PMC-Sierra introduced new Clock Management products designed to handle the higher frequencies in newer MIPS-based open architecture systems, such as printers, set-top boxes, advanced consumer applications and routers. PMC-Sierra's CLK family includes two categories - Flexible Clock Generators and Low-Skew Buffers. Flexible Clock Generators include spread spectrum technology and provide clocking for a broad set of applications by allowing selection of multiple clock frequencies. Low-Skew Buffers provide buffering of outputs for applications that require more copies of signals than are provided by the flexible clock generators.
