US Patent 12066476 Systems and methods for duty cycle measurement

Systems, methods, and circuits for determining a duty cycle of a periodic input signal are provided. A delay element is configured to delay the periodic input signal based on a digital control word. A digital circuit is configured to generate a first digital control word used to delay the periodic input signal a first amount of time corresponding to a period of the periodic input signal, generate a second digital control word used to delay the periodic input signal a second amount of time corresponding to a portion of the periodic input signal having a logic-level high value, and generate a third digital control word used to delay the periodic input signal a third amount of time corresponding to a portion of the periodic input signal having a logic-level low value. A controller is configured to determine the duty cycle based on the first, second, and third digital control words.
