Abstract
Circuitry and a method of operating a clock monitoring circuit for monitoring a clock signal is disclosed. The method comprises charging a first capacitor connected to a connection between a first pair of transistors and a voltage reference, charging a second capacitor connected to a connection between a second pair of transistors and to the voltage reference, sinking a current from the first and second pair of transistors with a constant current sink, and asserting a clock slow detect (CSD) signal when a voltage at the constant current sink drops below a threshold indicating durations of phases of the clock signal lengthen.
