Abstract

See full text

A delay circuit. In one embodiment, a programmable logic device (PLD) is used to implement one or more delay circuits having a plurality of delay elements. Included in the plurality of elements are a balanced number of logic elements such that rising and falling edges of a signal passing through the delay circuit propagate with substantially the same amount of delay. The delay circuit may also include a selector circuit coupled to select an output from one of the plurality of delay elements. The delay circuit may be implemented such that it preserves the duty cycle and/or pulse width of signals to which the delay is applied.
