Abstract:
Described is a low latency re-timer for systems supporting spread spectrum clocking. The re-timer comprises: a first clock frequency estimator to estimate a frequency of a receive clock (RX CLK) and to provide a first timestamp associated with a first clock that underwent spread spectrum; a second clock frequency estimator to estimate a frequency of a transmit clock (TX CLK) and to provide a second timestamp associated with a second clock that underwent spread spectrum; and a comparator to compare the first timestamp with the second timestamp.

Claim (Index 11):
An apparatus comprising:\n a first counter to count a frequency of a first clock and to provide a first count associated with the first clock that underwent spread spectrum; a second counter to count a frequency of a second clock and to provide a second count associated with the second clock that underwent spread spectrum; and a comparator to compare the first count with the second count.
