Duty cycle corrector and converter for differential clock signals

Abstract:

Various techniques are provided to correct the duty cycles and convert differential clock signals in synchronized systems. In one example, a method includes receiving an input differential clock signal having a distorted duty cycle. The method also includes adjusting the input differential clock signal to provide an output differential clock signal with a corrected duty cycle. The adjusting is performed in response to signals provided by a differential amplifier and a common mode amplifier of an analog feedback circuit receiving the output differential clock signal. Additional methods and systems are also provided.
