Abstract

A circuit includes an input stage, an output stage, and a delay stage. The input stage is operative to receive a clock signal and a first and second input signal. The output stage is operative to receive the clock signal. The output stage is also operative to generate a first and second output signal based on the clock signal and the first and second input signals. The delay stage is operatively coupled to the input and output stages. The delay stage includes a first and second branch. The second branch includes at least one more delay element than the first branch.
