Abstract:
Locked loops, delay lines, delay circuits, and methods for delaying signals are disclosed. An example delay circuit includes a delay line including a plurality of delay stages, each delay stage having an input and further having a single inverting delay device, and also includes a two-phase exit tree coupled to the delay line and configured to provide first and second output clock signals responsive to clock signals from inputs of the delay stages of the plurality of delay stages. Another example delay circuit includes a delay line configured to provide a plurality of delayed clock signals, each of the delayed clock signals having a delay relative to a previous delayed clock signal equal to a delay of a single inverting delay device. The example delay circuit also includes a two-phase exit tree configured to provide first and second output clock signals responsive to the delayed clock signals.
