Timing delay generator and method using temperature stabilisation

A timing delay generator for supplying a signal delayed by a predetermined period comprises a vernier that provides variable delays for a main signal, the delays being sensitive to temperature variation, a sensor for sensing the vernier's temperature and a feedback loop to maintain the temperat...

More Information
Summary:A timing delay generator for supplying a signal delayed by a predetermined period comprises a vernier that provides variable delays for a main signal, the delays being sensitive to temperature variation, a sensor for sensing the vernier's temperature and a feedback loop to maintain the temperature of the silicon die at a constant level and thus, to provide the high long-term accuracy of the timing delay generator.
