Abstract :
An all-digital fast-locked synchronous duty-cycle corrector is presented. It corrects the duty cycle and synchronizes the input and output clocks in 10 clock cycles. The proposed circuit has been fabricated in a 0.18-mum CMOS technology. The measured duty-cycle error is between 1.5% and -1.4% for the input duty cycle of 40%~60%. The measured peak-to-peak jitter is 12.9ps at 1GHz. The measured operation frequency range is from 0.8GHz to 1.2 GHz
