Abstract
A calibration circuit has a delay loop, a counter and a latch. The delay loop that includes a delay circuit. The counter is clocked by edges in a clock signal generated by the delay loop when an enable signal is in a first signaling state. The latch is configured to capture a multibit output of the counter when the enable signal transitions to a second signaling state. A number of unit delay elements in the delay circuit are enabled based on the multibit output of the counter. In one example, the number of enabled unit delay elements is based on a difference between the multibit output of the counter and a multibit value expected to be generated when the delay circuit is operating nominally.
