Devices and techniques are disclosed herein to extend a range of an effective delay of a delay circuit having a configurable delay limited to a first range of delay values with respect to a first edge of a clock signal. A selection circuit can selectively apply the configurable delay to a subsequent, second edge of the clock signal to extend the range of the effective delay of the delay circuit beyond the first range of delay values.

Host clock effective delay range extension

Devices and techniques are disclosed herein for applying an effective sampling delay at a host device to one of an input signal, such as from an embedded MultiMediaCard (eMMC) device, or a clock signal. The host device can apply a configurable delay to one of the input signal or the clock signal with respect to a first edge of the clock signal, sample the input signal using the clock signal according to the configurable delay, and selectively align the sampled input signal to a subsequent, second edge of the clock signal to extend the configurable delay of the host device.
