Abstract:
Aspects generally relate to reducing delay, or phase jitter, in high speed signals transmission. Variations in power supply to ground potential changes the amount of delay introduced by transmit circuitry into the signal being transmitted, resulting in jitter, or phase noise, in the transmitted signal. To reduce phase jitter, or phase noise, aspects disclosed include a variable impedance circuit coupled to the signal distribution network, the impedance level of the variable impedance circuit is adjusted in response to variation in the supply to ground potential, such that the delay introduced by the impedance compensates for changes in the delay due to variations in supply to ground potential, resulting in substantially constant delay.

Claim (Index 11):
An apparatus comprising:\n a driver coupled to a power supply and ground, the driver configured to receive an input signal and output an output signal; a supply compensated delay circuit comprising;\n a control circuit comprising a supply sense circuit configured to sense a variation in the supply to ground potential and to generate a supply sense circuit signal in response to the variation; \n a variable impedance circuit coupled to the driver, the impedance of the variable impedance circuit varied in response to the supply sense circuit signal.
