    摘要: A method and apparatus for managing hysterisis in a delay line. In one embodiment, an integrated circuit includes a delay line. A selection circuit is coupled to an input of the delay line. The selection circuit includes two inputs: a first input coupled to convey a signal such as a data signal or a data strobe signal, while the second input is coupled to convey a dummy clock signal. Control logic is coupled to monitor activity within the delay line. Upon detecting a lack of activity for a predetermined time period, the control logic is configured to cause the selection circuit to allow the dummy clock signal to be conveyed to the input of the delay line.
