Abstract
An inertial delay circuit includes a negative glitch removing circuit connected in series with a positive glitch removing circuit. The negative and positive glitch removing circuits are respectively configured to pass only negative and positive pulses of an input signal having a pulse width greater than a pre-determined width. The negative glitch removing circuit passes its input through a delay line and performs a logical OR on its input and the delayed signal. The positive glitch removing circuit passes its input through a delay line and performs a logical AND on its input and the delayed signal. The glitch removing circuits may further include respective pulse width restoring circuits to restore the pulses passing therethrough to their original widths.
