Abstract
A duty cycle correction circuit is disclosed. The duty cycle correction circuit includes an input stage, an output stage and a feedback component including a feedback amplifier and a low pass filter. The feedback component compares and adjusts the duty cycle of a signal from an input stage to a target value via a control voltage. The input stage reduces the rise and fall times of received signal to increase the duty cycle sensitivity to a control voltage from the feedback component. The output of the output stage is coupled to the input of the feedback component and the output stage amplifiers the duty cycle adjusted signal processed by both input stage and feedback component.
