    Abstract: A system (and associated method) includes an input flip-flop, a counter, and a clock tree. The input flip-flop includes a clock input terminal configured to be coupled to a device clock, or a clock generated from a phase-locked loop, and a data input terminal configured to be coupled to a first reference signal. The input flip-flop is configured to use the device clock to latch the reference signal to produce a latched reference signal. The counter is configured to count pulses of the device clock starting upon detection of the latched reference signal and to output a second reference signal comprising a pulse for every L pulses of the device clock. The clock tree is configured to divide down the device clock to generate a first output clock. The clock tree is configured to be synchronized by a pulse of the second reference signal.

    Abstract: The disclosure provides a time gain compensation (TGC) circuit. The TGC circuit includes an impedance network. A differential amplifier is coupled to the impedance network. The differential amplifier includes a first input port, a second input port, a first output port and a second output port. A first feedback resistor is coupled between the first input port and the first output port. A second feedback resistor is coupled between the second input port and the second output port. The impedance network provides a fixed impedance to the differential amplifier when a gain of the TGC circuit is changed from a maximum value to a minimum value.

    Abstract: In certain embodiments, circuits and methods for time gain compensation are provided. A circuit includes a first op-amp that is configured to compare a first and a second input voltage signal received from first and second input circuits, respectively, and output a first op-amp output signal. A control circuit coupled with a first semiconductor element of the second input circuit is configured to vary a first resistance value of the first semiconductor element to control the first op-amp output signal. The first op-amp output signal includes a relatively high voltage signal and a relative low voltage signal when an input control voltage signal corresponds to a first reference voltage and a second reference voltage signal, respectively associated with the first op-amp. The first op-amp output signal is input to a gate terminal of a load semiconductor element so-as to vary an impedance of the load semiconductor element.
