    Abstract: A device and a method for aligning in time two essentially isochronous digit al signals are provided, in which a plurality (2n) of replicas (CK1-CK4) of the first s ignal (CKIN), separated by a given phase difference, are generated and a number of said re plicas (CK3, CK4) is subjected to sampling (4, 5) in correspondence with the rising edges of the second signal (DATA). As the result of the sampling, a combination of lo gic signals (SL0, SL1) is obtained which is representative of the phase relation existin g between each of said replicas (CK1-CK4) and the second signal (DATA). The output sig nal (CKOUT) of the device, aligned with the second signal, corresponds to the on e, among the replicas (CK1-CK4) of the first signal, which best reproduces the desire d alignment condition.

    Abstract: A device and a method for aligning in time two essentially isochronous digital signals are provided, in which a plurality (2 ) of replicas (CK1-CK4) of the first signal (CKIN), separated by a given phase difference, are generated and a number of said replicas (CK3, CK4) is subjected to sampling (4, 5) in correspondence with the rising edges of the second signal (DATA). As the result of the sampling, a combination of logic signals (SLO, SL1) is obtained which is representative of the phase relation existing between each of said replicas (CK1-CK4) and the second signal (DATA). The output signal (CKOUT) of the device, aligned with the second signal, corresponds to the one, among the replicas (CK1- CK4) of the first signal, which best reproduces the desired alignment condition.

    Abstract: The circuit in CMOS technology allows high speed driving of optical sources, in particular laser diodes, operating efficiently at speeds that meet the requirements imposed by optical fibre communication systems and avoiding interference between driving currents and biasing current in the optical source. The circuit comprises a bias current generator, a modulation current generator and a cascade of CMOS inverter stages that supplies a driving voltage to the modulation current generator and receives digital signals at its input. It is possible to independently adjust the bias current, so as to allow driving sources with different threshold currents, and to adjust the modulation current.
