Abstract

A circuit for generating a pulse signal in response to an input signal. The circuit provides a pulse width for the pulse signal. A first logic device receives the input signal and generates a first intermediate signal. A delay device is coupled to the first logic device and receives the first intermediate signal. The delay device generates a second intermediate signal in response to the first intermediate signal after a period of time. The second intermediate signal has the same state as the second intermediate signal. A second logic device is coupled to both the first logic device and the delay device. The second logic device generates the pulse signal in response to the first intermediate signal.
