IQonIC Works' RISC-V Timer comprises a versatile suite of timers designed to adhere to the RISC-V machine timer standards. It is adaptable to various system requirements, offering configurations suitable for both power-conscious and high-frequency timekeeping needs. Core to its design are variants without clock-domain crossing (CDC) for straightforward cycle counts in processor-clock cycles.
For low-power systems where the main clock can be powered down, the Timer IP provides versions utilizing a continuous clock for timing calculations, catering to energy-efficient applications. The architectural design facilitates integration in complex systems with its option for AHB or APB bus interfaces, making it highly compatible with diverse hardware configurations.
The Timer IP ensures precise and reliable time management, essential for synchronization across different processes and hardware components. It plays a pivotal role in systems that require robust timer accuracy, supporting efficient time-triggered applications and contributing to the seamless execution of multitasking operations.
