Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for phase clock correction are described. The clock correction may, in some examples, include two stages of duty cycle adjustment. In a first stage, the duty cycles of multiple clock signals may be adjusted. These clock signals may be based on an input clock signal and its complement. The duty cycle adjustment provided to a clock signal during this stage may be based on a difference between the duty cycle of the clock signal before adjustment and the duty cycle of another clock signal. In the second stage, the duty cycle of the input clock signal and its complement may be adjusted. The duty cycle adjustment provided to the input clock signal and/or its complement may be based on clock signals generated from the multiple clock signals after their duty cycles have been adjusted.
