Abstract:
A duty cycle correction system corrects for duty cycle distortion by measuring average time interval durations of consecutive intervals of an input signal. The system generates complementary ramp signals that have cross-points indicating midpoints of the intervals, and detects those cross-points. An output circuit of the duty cycle correction system generates an output signal that performs rising and falling transitions in response to the detected cross-points.

Claim (Index 19):
A system comprising:\n an input circuit configured to receive a pair of complementary input signals comprising a first input signal and a second input signal; a ramp generation circuit configured to:\n generate a first pair of complementary ramp signals that transition over time durations corresponding to pulse durations of pulses of the first input signal; and \n generate a second pair of complementary ramp signals that transition over time durations corresponding to pulse durations of pulses of the second input signal; \n a cross-point detection circuit configured to detect a plurality of consecutive cross-points of the first and second pairs of complementary ramp signals; and an output circuit configured to set durations of consecutive intervals of an output signal in response to detection of the plurality of consecutive cross-points of the first and second pairs of complementary ramp signals.
