Claim 12:
13. A keeper circuit comprising:
a pull-up transistor, wherein the pull-up transistor is connected to an adaptive circuit comprising a first adaptive circuit electrical path that includes a first NFET and a second NFET, and a second adaptive circuit electrical path that includes a first PFET and a second PFET, wherein the first NFET and the first PFET are connected to an adaptive circuit voltage supply, wherein the second NFET and the second PFET are connected to the pull-up transistor, wherein a gate of the first NFET and a gate of the second NFET are connected to a differential voltage of a driver circuit, and wherein a gate of the first PFET and a gate of the second PFET are connected to a gate of the pull-up transistor;
a first voltage supply;
a second voltage supply; and
a node that gates the first voltage supply and the second voltage supply, wherein the keeper circuit keeps a value of an output pulse of a dynamic circuit based on the gated first voltage supply and the second voltage supply.
