    摘要： A duty cycle control buffer uses an edge detector input stage to detect the transitions of an unpredictable clock signal input. The edge detector generates one shot output signals in synchronism with the clock signal. A pulse width controllable monostable multivibrator converts the one shot signals into rectangular pulses, at the same frequency as the original clock input. The rectangular pulses are inverted and then averaged, to provide a voltage input to one side of an operational amplifier. A reference voltage is supplied to the other side of the operational amplifier, such that the difference between the average voltage and the reference voltage generates an output control voltage from the operational amplifier. This control voltage provides negative feedback to a pulse width control stage within the monostable multivibrator, thereby adjusting the pulse width of the rectangular pulse output until a steady state is reached. A frequency divider circuit may be inserted in front of the edge detector to add a selective frequency dividing capability to the duty cycle control buffer.

    摘要： A level shifter is provided with first and second steady-state drivers and transient driver circuitry. Each steady-state driver includes a low enable input, a high enable input and an output. Each steady-state driver outputs from its respective output a low voltage level signal when an enabling voltage level is received at its low enable input and a disabling voltage is received at its high enable input. Furthermore, each steady-state driver outputs from its output a first high voltage level signal, that is higher than a second high voltage level of an input signal, when a disabling voltage level is received at its low enable input and an enabling high voltage level is received at its high enabling input. The high enable input of the first steady-state driver is connected to the output of the second steady-state driver. The high enable input of the second steady-state driver is connected to the output of the first steady-state driver. The input of the first steady-state driver receives a complement of the input signal and the input of the second steady-state driver receives the input signal. The transient driver circuitry responds to a transition in the voltage level of the input signal by driving the output of one of the first and second drivers, to the first high voltage level, for a certain time period. The transient driver circuitry is enabled to drive the output with a maximum driving capacity throughout the aforementioned certain time period.

    摘要： A level shifting inverter is provided with first and second drivers which may be level shifting inverters, which each have a low enable input, a high enable input and an output. Each driver outputs a low voltage level or a second high voltage level(that is higher than a first high voltage level of an input signal) depending on enabling and disabling voltage levels received at the high and low enable inputs of each driver. The high enable input of the first and second drivers are connected in a cross-coupled feedback configuration. The input of the first driver receives a complement of the input signal whereas the input of the second driver receives the input signal. The level shifter also has transition driver circuitry. The transition driver circuitry has an input receiving the second high voltage level, a first biasing input receiving the input signal and a second biasing input receiving the complement of the input signal. The transition driver circuitry responds to an input signal voltage level transition by charging the output of a first one of the first and second drivers to approximately the second high voltage level and discharging, to the low voltage level, the output of a second one of the first and second drivers. The charging and discharging of the first and second driver outputs causes a disabling voltage level to be outputted to the high enable input of the first one of the first and second drivers and an enabling voltage level to be outputted to the high enable input of the second one of the first and second drivers.

    摘要： An output buffer is provided which receives an input signal for output onto an output terminal. The output buffer has a first driver and a second driver for driving the output terminal to a voltage corresponding to a logic value of the input signal. The second driver has a higher driving capacity than the first driver. The output buffer also has control circuitry receiving a transition in logic value of the input signal and at least one mode signal. The control circuitry responds to the transition in logic value by delaying the second driver from driving the output terminal to a complementary voltage until after the first driver begins to drive the output terminal to the complementary voltage. In so doing, the control circuitry delays the second driver by a first delay, when the mode signal(s) indicates a full speed mode. On the other hand, the control circuitry delays the second driver by a second delay, that is longer than the first delay, when the mode signal(s) indicates a low speed mode.

    摘要： An N times frequency multiplication circuit uses duty cycle control buffers in combination with edge detectors to provide both multiplication and 50% duty cycle adjustment. Parallel branches of duty cycle control buffers are preset for respective duty cycles of 1/N, 2/N,...,N−1/N. The buffers each receive a common edge detected input signal and simultaneously output their respective duty cycle adjusted clock signals. A rising and falling edge detector generates a pulse train at double the frequency of the 1/N buffer output, while falling edge detectors generate time spaced pulse trains from the outputs of their respective 2/N,...,N−1/N buffers. These pulse trains are combined in an OR gate to provide an output pulse train at a frequency N times the input clock frequency fin. A final stage duty cycle control buffer adjusts the N times fin output signal to a 50% duty cycle.

    摘要： A CMOS voltage regulator uses clock signals from an adaptive swing clock generator to control the output voltage of a charge pumping circuit. A divided portion of the output voltage is fed to a differential amplifier, where it is compared to a pre-set reference voltage. A negative feedback signal is generated from the differential amplifier and inputted to the adaptive swing clock generator, where it causes the clock signals to change amplitude in an inverse relationship to changes in the output voltage. When the divided portion of the output voltage equals the pre-set reference voltage, a steady-state output voltage condition is achieved.
