C9812
Low EMI Clock Generator for Intel 810E Chipset Systems
Clock Synchronization and Phase Alignment
This device incorporates IOAPIC clock synchronization. With this feature, the IOAPIC clocks are derived from the CPU
clock. The IOAPIC clock lags the CPU clock by the specified 1.5 to 3.5 nSec. Figure 3 shows the relationship between
the CPU and IOAPIC clocks.
