    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide an apparatus comprising: first and second input transistors of a first type and first and second load transistors of a second type coupled in series, respectively; at least one resistor coupled to gate nodes of the load transistors; and first and second capacitive devices. Gate nodes of the first and second input transistors are coupled to first and second inputs, respectively. The first input transistor and the first load transistor are coupled to a first output. The second input transistor and the second load transistor are coupled to a second output. The gate nodes of the first and second load transistors are coupled to a bias voltage through the resistor. The first and second capacitive devices are coupled to the first and second inputs and to the gate nodes of the first and second load transistors, respectively.

    Abstract: A phase-locked loop (PLL) circuit is configured to adjust a value of a bias voltage based on a comparison between a reference clock signal and a feedback clock signal, and an oscillator circuit is configured to provide the feedback clock signal and phase-shifted clock signals based on a value of the bias voltage. A frequency detector of the frequency detector is configured to cause an adjustment to the value of the bias voltage in response to detection of a frequency deviation between the reference clock signal and the feedback clock signal. To avoid a metastable state, the frequency detector is configured to apply an asynchronous delay to one of the reference clock signal or the feedback clock signal prior to detection of the frequency deviation.

    Abstract: An apparatus may include a first pad and a first input circuit coupled to the first pad. The first input circuitry may include a first signal propagation path that couples to the first pad, a latch circuit, a second signal propagation path that couples to the latch circuit, and a gate circuitry coupling between the first and second signal propagation paths. The first signal propagation path may have first signal propagation time and the second signal propagation path may have second signal propagation time that is greater than the first propagation time.
