Abstract
An apparatus includes a clock generator configured to generate a series of new clock pulses, the clock generator having an input port for receiving input clock pulses, an output port for delivering the new clock pulses to a target circuit that uses the new clock pulses to determine at least a start time or a stop time of a signal generated by the target circuit, and, a pulse delay for governing the width of the new clock pulses, the delay including circuits that produces longer delays for faster corners.
