Abstract:
A duty cycle corrector includes a sensing unit, a pad unit, a fuse unit, and a driver unit. The sensing unit generates at least one sensing signal based on the sensed duty cycle ratio of an output signal. The pad unit outputs at least one decision signal based on the at least one sensing signal. The fuse unit generates a duty cycle control signal based on at least one received fuse control signal. The driver unit adjusts a duty cycle ratio of an input signal to generate the output signal based on the duty cycle control signal. The driver unit adjusts the duty cycle ratio of the input signal by adjusting a pull-up strength or a pull-down strength of the input signal based on the duty cycle control signal.
Abstract:
An on-die termination (ODT) circuit includes a calibration unit, an offset-code generating unit, an adder, and an ODT unit. The calibration unit generates a pull-up code and a pull-down code. The offset-code generates a pull-up offset code and a pull-down offset code based on a mode-register-set signal, the pull-up code, and the pull-down code. The adder adds the pull-up offset code and the pull-down offset code to the pull-up code and the pull-down code, respectively, and generates a pull-up calibration code and a pull-down calibration code. The ODT unit changes ODT resistance in response to the pull-up calibration code and the pull-down calibration code.
