Abstract

An embodiment of the present invention includes a pipeline comprising a plurality of stages and a pipeline timing controller controlling a plurality of predetermined delays, wherein, when one of the predetermined delays has expired, the pipeline timing controller sends a control signal to initiate at least one process within associated ones of the plurality of stages.
