Hi All,

Why we use "AND" gate in gated clocks instead of "OR" gate.

Regards
 

how can you gate a clock using or gate because the clock is gonna propagate whether the other input is 1 or 0....
 

Because Gated Clock is used to stop the system clock to go through the logic block. If you use OR gate then it will always run through the block in any case. Therefore, it is wrong idea to use OR gate.
