Abstract

Circuits, methods, and apparatus are directed to sharing input and output functionality. A timing circuit usable for input and output functionality may be combined with another timing circuit to provide additional input/output functionality or to reduce the number of circuit elements for input/output functionality. For example, two timing circuits may be used to provide double data-rate input while still providing output functionality, or vice versa. Two timing circuits may also provide output that is timed and gated with an output enable signal.
