Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed herein to provide improved clock, delay, and skew techniques. For example, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, an integrated circuit includes a clock generator to provide a bias signal and a clock signal, with control logic providing a delay control signal based on the bias signal and a multi-bit control signal. A clock skew circuit provides a delay to the clock signal based on the delay control signal provided by the control signal. Memory coupled to the control logic provides the multi-bit control signal.
