Abstract
An interpolator includes a first delay circuit, a second delay circuit, and a tunable delay circuit. The first delay circuit delays a first input signal for a fixed delay time, so as generate a first output signal. The second delay circuit delays a second input signal for the fixed delay time, so as to generate a second output signal. The tunable delay circuit delays the first input signal for a tunable delay time, so as to generate an output interpolation signal. The tunable delay time is determined according to the first output signal, the second output signal, and the output interpolation signal.
