Abstract
A method for generation of high frequency, non-overlapping clocks may include receiving input clock signals at a clock input node of a circuit. Multiple feedback signals may be received at a number of input feedback nodes of the circuit. At a startup node, a startup signal of the circuit may be received, and, in response to receiving the startup signal, an output clock may be generated at a predefined portion of at least one of the received input clock signals. A stable high frequency output clock may be generated at an output stage by utilizing the feedback signals received by the input feedback nodes.
