Abstract: Alignment circuitry including a first clocked latch for receiving a synchronization signal having an enable edge and a target clock signal and outputting an enable signal having an enable edge corresponding to the enable edge of the synchronization signal and synchronized with the target clock signal; a second clocked latch for receiving the enable signal and a delayed target clock signal, being a version of the target clock signal having been delayed by a delay circuit of the clock-controlled circuitry, and outputting a re-timed enable signal having an enable edge corresponding to the enable edge of the enable signal and synchronized with the delayed target clock signal; and gating circuitry for receiving the delayed target clock signal and the re-timed enable signal and to start output of the delayed target clock signal at a timing defined by the enable edge of the re-timed enable signal for controlling the clock-controlled circuitry.

Abstract: There is disclosed herein integrated circuitry, comprising a signal path connected to a connection pad, for connection to external circuitry; and a termination circuit connected between the signal path and a voltage reference, wherein the termination circuit comprises a resistor and an inductor. The resistor and the inductor are connected together so as to compensate for parasitic capacitance associated with the connection pad. The signal path may carry an output signal from high-speed circuitry such as digital-to-analog converter circuitry.
