Abstract
An electronic device including: a variable delay circuit configured to adjust a delay of a variable delay input for generating an output signal; a decision circuit coupled to the variable delay, the decision circuit configured to: generate a start signal for the variable delay circuit to begin measuring a coarse delay, generate a stop signal for the variable delay circuit to stop measuring the coarse delay, and generate an inversion-decision signal based at least in part on measuring the coarse delay; and an input selection circuit coupled to the variable delay circuit and the decision circuit, the input selection circuit configured to control a phase for a clock input based on the inversion-decision signal in generating the variable delay input.
