Abstract
The clock circuit of an integrated circuit operates with variations such as temperature, ground noise, and power noise. Various aspects of an improved clock integrated circuit address one or more of the variations in temperature, ground noise, and power noise.
Claims10
An integrated clock circuit comprising:
- a signal generator generating a clock signal output of the integrated clock circuit;
- timing circuitry coupled to an output of the signal generator;
- circuitry comparing an output of the timing circuitry against a temperature compensated reference, an output of the circuitry coupled to an input of the signal generator such that timing of the clock signal output of the integrated clock circuit resists variation with temperature;
- and
- a reference circuit generating the temperature compensated reference.
