Abstract

Apparatuses and methods for providing multiphase clock signals are described. An example apparatus includes first, second, third and fourth clocked inverters, first and second clock terminals, and first and second latch circuits. An input node and an output node of the first clocked inverter is coupled respectively to an output node of the fourth clocked inverter and an input node of the second clocked inverter. An input node and an output node of the third clocked inverter is coupled to an output node of the second clocked inverter and an input node of the fourth clocked inverter. The first and second clock terminals are supplied respectively with first and second clock signals. The first latch is coupled between the output nodes of the first and third clocked inverters, and the second latch circuit is coupled between the output nodes of the second and fourth clocked inverters.
