Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to a ring oscillator (RO) frequency divider configured to frequency divide an input clock by a programmable divider ratio to generate an output clock. In this regard, the RO frequency divider receives the input clock, enables each of a ring of N cascaded inverter stages substantially one at a time in response to the input clock; and outputs a second clock from an output of one of the ring of N cascaded inverter stages. In one aspect, each stage includes a p-channel metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (PMOS FET) coupled in series with an n-channel metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (NMOS FET). In another, each stage includes two PMOS FETs and an NMOS FET.

Abstract: A method and system for self-powering a clock input buffer is disclosed. The system includes an input node adapted to receive an alternating current (AC) signal having an instantaneous voltage oscillating between a minimum voltage and a maximum voltage. The system includes a pass transistor having a voltage controlled terminal, a first transfer terminal, and a second transfer terminal. The first transfer terminal connects to the input node and the second transfer terminal connects to a power node. The circuit also includes a plurality of transistors adapted to form a logic gate connected to the power node, and having a sensing terminal connected to the input node and an output terminal connected to the voltage controlled terminal. The logic gate produces a control voltage on the output terminal in response to an input voltage on the sensing terminal.

Abstract: A level-shifter is provided in which the devices may all be sized approximately the same yet a known startup state is provided at power-up by forming the level-shifter using a one-sided NMOS latch. The one-sided NMOS latch is powered through a pair of head-switch transistors. A pair of pull-down transistors function to flip a binary state for the one-sided NMOS latch.
