摘要:
An inverter circuit has a digital signal amplitude converter having an input coupled to an inverter circuit input node, and an amplitude converter output. A positive threshold voltage compensation generator has a positive threshold voltage compensation generator input coupled to the amplitude converter output. A negative threshold voltage compensation generator has a negative threshold voltage compensation generator input coupled to the inverter circuit input node, and a negative threshold voltage compensation generator output. A multiplexer has a first input coupled to the positive threshold voltage compensation generator output, a second input, coupled to the negative threshold voltage compensation generator output, and a multiplexer output. An inverter module has an output providing an inverter circuit output node, and an inverter module input is coupled to the multiplexer output. The inverter circuit at least partially compensates for variations in a threshold voltage associated with switching of transistors that form the inverter module.
摘要:
A programmable digital clock signal frequency divider module has a module clock input, module clock output, a scaling factor input, two programming inputs, and a tertiary input. A primary divider module with a primary divider module output and a clock input are coupled to the module clock input. A secondary divider module includes a multiplexer and a divide by two latch with a latch clock input coupled to the primary divider module output. In operation, logic values applied to the scaling factor input, and the programming inputs, result in the primary divider module processing a first sequence of cycles of a primary digital clock signal into a first base clock signal and processing a subsequent second sequence of cycles into a second base clock signal. The first base clock signal and the second base clock signal provide a sequence of clock pulses to the secondary divider module. Edges of the sequence of clock pulses trigger the divide by two latch, which results in a latch output clock signal with a 50% duty cycle at the output of the divide by two latch. Logic values at the tertiary input select either the sequence of clock pulses or the latch output clock signal to be a module clock output signal at the module clock output.
