    摘要: A variable-delay signal generator circuit includes a delay chain and an interpolator circuit. The delay chain produces multiple multi-phase signals, where each of the multi-phase signals represents a delayed version of an input event signal. Each of the multi-phase signals is separated from consecutive signals by a first phase increment. The interpolator circuit includes multiple interpolator blocks, where each block receives a multi-phase signal. The interpolator circuit interpolates between consecutive interpolator blocks, to produce an output signal that represents a modified-delay version of the input event signal. The output signal is delayed to one of multiple phase delays that exist between consecutive multi-phase signals, inclusive. To produce the output signal, a variable current source within each interpolator block is adjusted, based on a current source select signal. The current source select signal is produced by a bias circuit, which includes a split current source.

    摘要: A biasing system for a differential amplifier includes an NMOS current source and a gate bias voltage generator. The gate bias voltage generator produces a bias voltage VNCS to control the NMOS current source. The gate bias generator includes a reference current generator to produce a reference current relatively independent of supply voltage variations. A temperature compensator regulates the reference current to provide a temperature compensated current. A current mirror duplicates the temperature compensated current to a bias voltage generator. The bias voltage generator generates the bias voltage.
