    Abstract: A method, non-transitory computer readable medium, and circuit for clock phase generation are disclosed. The circuit (100) includes an injection locked oscillator (102), a loop controller (116), and a phase interpolator (108). The injection locked oscillator (102) includes an input for receiving an injected clock signal (112) and an output for forwarding a set of fixed clock phases. The loop controller (116) includes an input for receiving a phase separation error of the fixed clock phases and an output for forwarding a supply voltage derived from the phase separation error. The supply voltage matches the free running frequency of the injection locked oscillator (102) to a frequency of the injected clock signal (112). The phase interpolator (108) includes an input for receiving the set of fixed clock phases directly from the injection locked oscillator (102), an input for receiving the supply voltage from the loop controller (116), and an output for forwarding an arbitrary clock phase.

    Abstract: Examples described herein generally relate to a temperature-locked loop for optical elements. In an example, a device includes a controller and a digital-to- analog converter (DAC). The controller includes a DC-controllable transimpedance stage (DCTS), a sheer circuit, and a processor. The DCTS is configured to be coupled to a photodiode. An input node of the sheer circuit is coupled to an output node of the DCTS. The processor has an input node coupled to an output node of the sheer circuit. The DAC has an input node coupled to an output node of the processor and is configured to be coupled to a heater. The processor is configured to control (i) the DCTS to reduce a DC component of a signal on the output node of the DCTS and (ii) an output voltage on the output node of the DAC, both based on a signal output by the sheer circuit.

    Abstract: Examples described herein generally relate to integrated circuits that include a latch-based level shifter circuit with self-biasing. In an example, an integrated circuit includes first and second latches and an output stage circuit. Each of the first and second latches includes a bias circuit electrically connected to a respective latch node and configured to provide a bias voltage at the respective latch node, which is electrically coupled to a signal input node. The output stage circuit has first and second input nodes electrically connected to first and second output nodes of the first and second latches, respectively, and a third output node. The output stage circuit is configured to responsively pull up and pull down a voltage of the third output node in response to respective voltages of the first and second input nodes.
