Abstract
An integrated circuit including a first circuit block having a power supply terminal for receiving a first power supply voltage and an output terminal for providing a first data signal is provided. The integrated circuit further includes a second circuit block having a power supply voltage terminal for receiving a second power supply voltage and an input terminal coupled to the output terminal of the first circuit block for receiving the first data signal. The integrated circuit further includes a first programmable delay block for adding a first delay time to the first data signal when one or both of the first or second power supply voltages is changed.
