Abstract
In the many microelectronics applications, delays present in circuitry can affect both the design and the function of the circuitry. One example of delays impacting the function of a circuit is a relaxation oscillator, where delays present in comparator circuits and latches can cause its frequency to vary beyond desired ranges. Here, a relaxation circuit with delay compensation is described.
