CPU Emulation and locking to a specific clock speed
If you had read my other question, you'll know I've spent this weekend putting together a 6502 CPU emulator as a programming exercise.
The CPU emulator is mostly complete, and seems to be fairly accurate from my limited testing, however it is…

How do I set GPU core and memory clock programmatically on Windows?
Is there some API/library for this? I have an ATI Radeon 9000 Series graphics card and I need to lower its core/memory clock on Windows startup (I thought of making a small service for this but I never did this before).
I know it's possible (because…

ARM LPC1768 UART0 configuration, wrong baud rate
My baud rate should be 115200, but it is 892.9
void UART0_Init(int pclk, int baudrate)
{
unsigned long int DLest;
//unsigned long int pclk;
unsigned int temp;
// Turn on power to UART0
SC->PCONP |= PCUART0_POWERON;
// Set…

Crystal core MPU Clock rate differences
I have a embedded system which on boot up shows as below:
Clocking rate (Crystal/Core/MPU): 12.0/400/1000 MHz
Can anybody explain me on differences between these three clock rate.
Processor is ARMv7, OMAP3xxx

Drive an DAC from a stream that is clocked from another source?
My DAC is internally clocked at 48khz, I need to feed it from a stream that is also 48khz but is clocked from a different source.
The two sources will drift over time and any buffering in between will inevitably overflow or underflow.
Unfortunately,…

How to program intel hd graphics gpu clock rate?
I found a tool (Intel Extreme Tuning Utility, os win 7 ulti x64) what I can use to change the gpu clock on my laptop (cpu type Intel Core i5-4210U, built in Intel HD Graphics 4400). I marked the slider (belongs to that function) with red on this…

Is Increment Speed Affected By Clock Rate
Consider the loop below. This is a simplified example of a problem I am trying to solve. I want to limit the number of times doSomething function is called in each second. Since the loop works very fast, I thought I could use a rate limiter. Let's…

Can increment of a register be used to determine the clock rate?
Can increment of a register (in a loop) be used to determine the (effective) clock rate?
I've naturally assumed it can, but I was commented that Cpu's may implant Super-scalar techniques that make this kind of computation useless.
Also I was told…

How to find second-by-second clock speed Mac
I would like to know the second-by-second cpu frequency on my Mac.
I have a feeling it likes to idle at very low clock speeds and then under demand jumps up to a higher clock rate. (I have UI frame rate evidence that suggests this)
My Mac is the…

Why RTP's timestamp for video payload use a 90 kHz clock rate?
I find that many RFCs said that:
A 90 kHz clock rate MUST be used.
But I don't get the root reason for this.

In terms of instructions processed by the CPU what does the clock rate determine?
There seems to be a gap in my understanding between the CPU processing instructions and the frequency at which the quartz crystal oscillates. How exactly does the frequency of a CPU affect the speed at which a program is run? Is there a relation…

Optimization of continuous assignment by mixing combinational and behavioral logics?
I am trying to wrap my head around a mix of combinational and behavioral logic. I've got small FPGA with 4 LEDs and a 66 MHz clock input. The idea was to make two of them glowing (one rising, one falling) and another two blinking. So I came up with…
