Glitchless clock multiplexer optimized for synchronous and asynchronous clocks

A computer implemented method for managing clock signal switching with logic devices in a circuit, comprising:

• receiving, at a multiplexer, delayed input clock signals from one or more glitchless control blocks for outputting asynchronous clock signals in an asynchronous clock group and delayed input clock signals from a plurality of glitchless control blocks for outputting synchronous clock signals in one or more synchronous clock groups;
• and
• switching from a first input clock signal which belongs to a synchronous clock group in the one or more synchronous clock groups to a second input clock signal which belongs to the synchronous clock group,
• wherein a switching latency from the first input clock signal which belongs to the synchronous clock group to the second input clock signal which belongs to the synchronous clock group is one clock cycle or less of the second input clock signal, and wherein the switching latency is a period in which no clock pulse appears at a final output clock signal of the circuit;
• and
• wherein select inhibit terminals in each glitchless control block for the synchronous clock group are connected directly to a combinational gate in each glitchless control block, such that an output signal from the combinational gate passes through only one D flip-flop to generate an enable signal one cycle earlier than other switching cases in which the output signal from the combinational gate passes through at least two stages of D flip-flops.
