Abstract
An apparatus for the controlled delay of an input signal includes a signal input for receiving an input signal. The input signal is supplied to a delay line with a multiplicity of delay elements. Outputs of the delay elements allow respective differently delayed phase signals to be tapped off. Furthermore, a register line with a multiplicity of register elements is provided. The register elements are each associated with one of the delay elements. Each of the register elements has a reset input and a clock input. The reset inputs are coupled to the signal input. The outputs of the delay elements are each coupled to the clock input of the register element associated therewith.
