Abstract
A switched delay section for an integrated circuit device is disclosed. The switched delay section includes a segmented inductor loop comprising a plurality of segments separated by nodes. A plurality of capacitors are coupled between the segmented inductor loop to provide a plurality of delay sections. An image loop is in electrical communication with the segmented inductor loop. The image loop includes a switch configured to place the plurality of capacitors in one of a high capacitance or a low capacitance state to provide a variable delay value.
