Abstract

A circuit includes a programmable delay circuit to provide a sequence of delayed pulses, an A/D circuit to convert a sequence of values into digital values sampled at times defined by the sequence of delayed pulses, and a jitter correction circuit to adjust the programmable delay circuit based on a sequence of digital values from the A/D circuit sampled at times defined by the sequence of delayed pulses.
