Abstract

A delay cell includes a cascode transistor and an inverter. The cascode transistor is used to receive a control voltage to generate a bias current, and includes a source terminal, a drain terminal, and a gate terminal receiving the control voltage. The inverter is coupled to the cascode transistor and used to generate an output signal according to the bias current in response to an input signal.
