Simple Clock Divider -> what's primitive?

536 Views

Hi All,

I need to divide the clock by 2. Should I use PLL for this purpose or there is a simpler primitive, which is able to divide the clock by 2?

Thank you!

Hi Dmitry,

Presently we don't have any clock primitive, We have to use PLL or dff with inverter to achieve clock divided by 2.
