Zusammenfassung:A technique for operating a delay circuit is disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the technique may be realized by a delay circuit comprising a plurality of data paths. The delay circuit may receive a signal. The delay circuit may also stagger transmissions of the signal through the plurality of data paths. The delay circuit may additionally generate a plurality of signals based on the staggered transmissions. Each of the plurality of data paths in the delay circuit may comprise at least one of an inverter, a logic gate, a flip-flop, a latch, a register, or a resistor-capacitor (RC) delay element.
