US Patent Issued to Intel on Feb. 17 for "Resonant clocking employing resonance at fundamental and harmonic frequencies" (Oregon Inventors)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Feb. 17 -- United States Patent no. 12,555,506, issued on Feb. 17, was assigned to Intel Corp. (Santa Clara, Calif.).

"Resonant clocking employing resonance at fundamental and harmonic frequencies" was invented by Susnata Mondal (Hillsboro, Ore.) and Mozhgan Mansuri (Portland, Ore.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "When an output of a driver circuit is coupled with a coupled-resonator network and a clock distribution network, the driver circuit generates a clock signal comprised of first and second components at first and second frequencies. The second frequency is a harmonic of the first frequency, and the first and second frequencies are in phase. In operation, the coupled-res...
