ABSTRACT:
A vernier time shifting circuit is used for fine-tuning capture of a clock signal and/or a data signal to compensate for fluctuations produced by the system or other variations within non-time invariant parts of the chip. Other variations can include process, temperature, or voltage differences. The vernier sample time shifting circuit allows shifting the signal in small steps to allow for optimal sampling.
