Abstract
An improvement over prior art voltage timing compensation circuits is achieved by incorporating a function generator to provide a more accurate non-linear compensation to pulse timing delay, which is typically a non-linear function of voltage. An improvement over prior art temperature timing compensation circuits is achieved by providing for actual temperature measurements to be made and used to drive the timing compensation circuitry for a more accurate temperature timing compensation than provided by prior art temperature synthesis, while still using a relatively simple compensating circuit. In some embodiments a timing compensation circuit combines both voltage and temperature timing compensation.
