Abstract: A system and method for providing improved resolution in the measuring the pulse width of digital signals comprising counting the integral number of measuring clock pulses covered by said digital pulse and triggering a chain of cascaded high resolution delay elements from the trailing edge of said measuring clock pulses. Further, the invention measures the delay count obtained from said chain of cascaded delay elements from the trailing edge of the last measuring clock pulse up to the end of said digital pulse, and adds said measured delay count to said integral measuring clock pulse count to obtain the total width of said digital pulse.

Abstract: A system for measuring a timing skew between two digital signals may include a clock generator for generating a time measurement clock, and a pulse-to-digital converter for converting the timing skew into an equivalent digital coded value after correcting for internal logic delays. The system may further include a register bank for storing the digital coded values, and a controller for generating control signals and sequences for controlling the operation of the pulse-to-digital converter and the register bank.
