Abstract

Electronic apparatus, systems, and methods to implement selective edge phase mixing are disclosed. A selective edge phase mixing system includes a processor and memory device configured to perform operations in synchronization with transitions of an externally provided clock signal. A selective edge phase mixing unit for the memory device may include a first logic gate that receives the clock signal at an input port and receives first control signals, and pull-up circuits in communication with an output of the first logic gate and first control signals. A second logic gate receives the clock signal at the input port and receives second control signals. Pull-down circuits are coupled to the second logic gate and the second control signals, wherein the pull-up circuits and the pull-down circuits are coupled to the output port to provide a duty cycle corrected clock signal to the memory device. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.
