  • Apparatus and method for introducing signal delay
    Patent number: 6798258
    Abstract: A precision signal delay apparatus and method for introducing time delay to a signal. Precision delay is introduced by a pair of delay locked loops (DLLs) connected in series each with selected delay (i.e., a Vernier-type circuit). Nonuniformity in the precision delay is compensated with a delay compensation circuit. The apparatus and method may be used for phase shifting, data delay, precision pulse width modulation, and precision time windowing.
    Type: Grant
