Abstract:
Embodiments of the disclosure are drawn to apparatuses and methods for a multi-bit duty cycle monitor. A clock signal may be provided to a memory in order to synchronize one or more operations of the memory. The clock signal may have a duty cycle which is adjusted by a duty cycle adjustor of the memory. The duty cycle of the adjusted clock signal may be monitored by a multi-bit duty cycle monitor. The multi-bit duty cycle monitor may provide a multi-bit signal which indicates if the duty cycle of the adjusted clock signal is above or below a target duty cycle value (or if the duty cycle is outside tolerances around the target duty cycle). The multi-bit duty cycle monitor may provide the multi-bit signal while access operations of the memory are occurring.
