  • Publication number: 20240063795
    Abstract: An electronic circuit for dynamic evaluation of logic functions includes a discharging circuit, a first keeper circuit, a delay circuit and a second keeper circuit. The discharging circuit is configured to discharge an evaluation node. The first keeper circuit is configured to charge the evaluation node and configured to be disabled responsively to a first keeper control indication. The delay circuit is configured to generate a second keeper control indication that is delayed relative to the first keeper control indication. The second keeper circuit is configured to retain a charge on the evaluation node responsively to the second keeper control indication.

  • Patent number: 11688437
    Abstract: An amplifier system includes a differential amplifier and a calibration circuit. In response to a calibration operation, the calibration circuit generates a calibration value based on a test output signal generated by the differential amplifier circuit using a test input signal. The calibration value may be used to adjust loading of internal nodes of the differential amplifier circuit to compensate for imbalance in the differential amplifier circuit resulting from variation in manufacturing. By compensating for the imbalance, the offset of the differential amplifier may be reduced, allowing resolution of smaller differential voltages, thereby improving the performance of circuits employing the differential amplifier circuit.
