Abstract: The provision of a clock chopper, pulse shaper, single-shot circuit with NOR gates a delay path and a set-reset latch. In response to a high input (for example) to a first NOR gate, the circuit output goes high and remains high until the output of the one NOR gate propagates through the delay one input of a second NOR gate whose other input is coupled to a set-reset latch. When the delayed output of the first NOR gate reaches the input of the second NOR gate, the circuit output falls, and the change in circuit output is fed back to reset the latch. The change in latch state changes the output state of the second NOR gate and resets the circuit for next input.

Abstract: A high-speed clock delay circuit in which an external differential digital clock signal is connected to a pair of differentially connected, current switching transistors. Emitter follower drivers couple the switching transistors to differential delayed clock output terminals. A pair of diodes cross-coupled between the differential output terminals and the switching transistors provide a relatively large Miller Effect capacitance, the charging and discharging of which provides a delay in the switching of the transistor pair, as measured differentially. Changing the charging and discharging current through the emitter follower driver, changes the bias across the diodes and thus changes their effective capacitance.
