Zusammenfassung:An apparatus includes a series of pipeline stages that have logic components connected to supply output data to latch components, timing correction blocks connected to the latch components, and a memory component connected to supply a correction pattern to the timing correction blocks. The timing correction blocks have a buffer connected to a multiplexor. The correction pattern controls whether the multiplexor receives an adjusted clock signal through the buffer to control whether the timing correction blocks supply an unadjusted clock signal or the adjusted clock signal to the latch components.
