Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a device for generating a clock signal including a first photoresistor coupling a capacitive output node to a node receiving a first potential. A second photoresistor couples the capacitive node to a node receiving a second potential. The first and second photoresistors receive the same optical pulses of a mode-locked laser at instants in time offset by a first delay.
