ABSTRACT:
Digital signal delay lines with electrically programmable and trimmable delay times, including electrically erasable and reprogrammable delay times. Floating gate field effect transistors are programmed to select current, capacitance, and/or threshold and thereby set a delay time determined by acurrent charging of a capacitor up to a threshold voltage. Trimming after packaging avoids package offsets. Temperature and power supply voltage compensation by current combining gives compensation compatible with the electrical programming.
