Abstract
Systems, methods, and circuits provide phase inversion of a clock signal. A first clock signal is received. A phase inversion signal indicates the existence of a 180 degree phase difference between the first clock signal and a second clock signal. As a result of the phase inversion signal indicating the 180 degree phase difference, the system, methods and circuits adapt the first clock signal by extending the first clock signal by a phase such that the first clock signal's rising edges and falling edges align with the second clock signal's rising edges and falling edges. As a result, the 180 degree phase difference between the clock signals is eliminated.
