Method and apparatus are described for duty cycle determination and
adjustment. More particularly, an output signal is sampled and provided
to duty cycle check circuitry which characterizes the duty cycle of the
sampled output signal. This characterization may be provided to a wafer
prober or integrated circuit tester to determine whether duty cycle is
within an acceptance range. Alternatively, the duty cycle indicator
signal may be provided to drive adjustment circuitry. In response to duty
cycle not being within an acceptance range, drive adjust circuitry
provides a drive adjustment signal to adjust duty cycle at an output
buffer by turning on one or more p-channel drive transistors, one or more
n-channel drive transistors, or a combination of both. Moreover, wells
may be biased responsive to a detected duty cycle in order to correct the
duty cycle.
