Signal state durations, such as the pulse-width, of on-chip signals are often
critical to the successful operation of an integrated circuit. The signal state
durations measured by on-chip technology provide signal state duration information
to an on-chip signal state duration control system. The signal state duration control
system uses the information to adjust the signal state duration of an on-chip signal.
In one embodiment, the signal state duration of the on-chip signal is the pulse
width of the on-chip signal. The signal duration measurement and adjustment system
is, for example, useful for measuring the state duration of signals such as self-resetting
signals, which are difficult to externally measure and adjust signal state durations
using on-chip technology.
