Abstract
The techniques described herein relate to duty cycle error calibration. An example apparatus includes a multi-modulus divider (MMD) circuit configured to receive a first digital code corresponding to a first time delay and included in a first plurality of digital codes associated with a first range of time delays, divide a clock signal by a divisor to generate a divided clock signal, and delay the divided clock signal by the first time delay to generate a delayed clock signal. The apparatus may further include a digitally controlled delay line (DCDL) circuit configured to receive a second digital code corresponding to a second time delay and included in a second plurality of digital codes associated with a second range of time delays, and delay the delayed clock signal by the second time delay to generate a feedback clock signal to reduce a difference between the feedback and a reference clock signal.
