Abstract
An example circuit, method, and electronic device configured to filter pulses below a minimum threshold pulse width and provide delays that exhibit low variance to changes in temperature, voltage, and technology processes, are provided. The example circuit includes a first flip/flop, a second flip/flop, and a charge detector. The first flip/flop generates a first out signal and a first inverse signal based on an input signal and a first clocking signal. The second flip/flop generates an output signal and a second out signal based on the first out signal, the first inverse signal, and a second clocking signal, wherein the second clocking signal is an inverse of the first clocking signal. The charge detector circuit includes a charging capacitor to generate a charge signal based on a change in the input signal, such that pulses are filtered based on a capacitance value of the charging capacitor and a reference voltage.
