Abstract

A method and circuit are provided for implementing adaptive control for optimization of pulsed resonant drivers, and a design structure on which the subject circuit resides. Peak detectors are used to detect a positive or up level reached by a resonant clock and negative or down level reached by the resonant clock. Each detected levels is compared to a reference level to determine when to vary the turn off timing of a clock driver pull-up device and/or a clock driver pull-down device. A positive peak detector controls the turn off time of the pull-up device and a negative peak detector controls a turn off time of the pull-down device in the pulsed resonant driver.
