Abstract: An integrated circuit is disclosed that implements a delay-locked loop with differential delay lines. In an example aspect, the integrated circuit includes a first delay line, a second delay line, and control circuitry. The first and second delay lines are coupled to a reference clock source to receive a reference clock. The first delay line produces a first delayed signal that is delayed relative to the reference clock by a first delay amount. The second delay line produces a second delayed signal that is delayed relative to the reference clock by a second delay amount. The control circuitry is coupled to the first and second delay lines. The control circuitry is configured to receive the first delayed signal, to receive the second delayed signal, and to adjust the first delay amount or the second delay amount based on the first delayed signal and the second delayed signal.

Abstract: A class AB amplifier may include an input stage, a first folded cascode stage, a second folded cascode stage, and a class AB output stage. In some embodiments, the class AB output stage may provide differential output signals. The common-mode voltage of the differential output signals may be controlled via a correction signal coupled to a selected folded cascode stage. The correction signal may control the common-mode voltage of the differential output signals by altering bias currents within the selected folded cascode stage. The other cascode stage may include bias currents controlled by relatively fixed bias voltages.
