Abstract
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product are provided. The apparatus outputs a sinusoidal signal according to a first clock frequency, generates, a first digital signal having a 25% duty cycle based on the sinusoidal signal, generates a second digital signal having a 25% duty cycle based on the sinusoidal signal, combines the first digital signal and the second digital signal to generate a combined digital signal having a 50% duty cycle and a second clock frequency that is double the first clock frequency, and doubles the second clock frequency of the combined digital signal to generate an output signal having a third clock frequency that is quadruple the first clock frequency. The apparatus further generates a first control voltage and a second control voltage for the first buffer and a third control voltage for the second buffer based on the output signal.
