Abstract
The present invention is an electronic device comprising a counter driven by an input clock signal for counting clock cycles and providing most significant bits of a count. A clock signal generating stage provides a first set of phase shifted clock signals having m different phases. The electronic device determines n least significant bits of the count of the counter from the logic states of the first set of m phase shifted clock signals.
