Abstract

See full text

A coupled ring oscillator circuit includes a first ring oscillator, a second ring oscillator and a coupling circuit. The first ring oscillator includes a series of delay stages, each delay stage including an inverter gate. The second ring oscillator includes a series of delay stages, each delay stage including an inverter gate. The coupling circuit includes a coupling cell having a first modified tri-state inverter connected in parallel with one of the inverter gates of the first ring oscillator, and a second modified tri-state inverter connected in parallel with one of the inverter gates of the second ring oscillator.
