Abstract:
An integrated circuit includes a pulse width modulator. The pulse width modulator includes a multiplexer that receives a plurality of data delay signals. Each of the data delay signals is based on a data signal and a respective clock phase signal. The multiplexer includes a first multiplexer stage and a second multiplexer stage. The first multiplexer stage receives all of the data delay signals and has a relatively large delay. The second multiplexer stage receives to output signals from the first multiplexer stage and has a relatively small delay. The second multiplexer stage outputs a pulse width modulation signal that can have a pulse width corresponding to the offset between two adjacent clock phase signals.
