==APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MONITORING DUTY CYCLE OF MEMORY CLOCK SIGNAL - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18454507 titled 'APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MONITORING DUTY CYCLE OF MEMORY CLOCK SIGNAL

The patent application describes an apparatus and method for monitoring the duty cycle of a memory clock signal. The apparatus includes a clock frequency converter that generates a second monitoring target clock signal by decreasing the frequency of a first monitoring target clock signal while maintaining its duty cycle, and a pulse counter that measures the pulse width of the second monitoring target clock signal using a reference clock signal.

* Clock frequency converter decreases frequency of monitoring target clock signal
* Duty cycle of monitoring target clock signal is maintained
* Pulse counter measures pulse width of second monitoring target clock signal
* Reference clock signal is used for measurement
