  • Internally gated variable pulsewidth clock generator
    Patent number: 4441037
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a variable pulsewidth gated clock generator which is able to provide output clock signals with the same rise rate as an external driving clock with the output signal being varied in duration according to logic conditions within the integrated circuit. The circuit of the present invention as disclosed includes a latch which is set by the first phase of a two-phase clock to set the internal logic of the circuit to generate a large output signal during the second phase of the two-phase clock.
