1. Circuit for programmable stepless clock shifting comprising:
- a splitter, receiving a clock reference and generating two 90′
-shifted clock phases;
an interpolator receiving said two 90′
-shifted clock phases and two coefficients, and supplying a programmable phase clock, which has a phase shift with respect to said clock reference that depends only on said two coefficients.

Abstract
The present invention provides for a circuit for programmable stepless clock shifting, consisting of a splitter generating a 0° and a 90° shifted clocks from a reference clock, and an interpolator of the two shifted clocks, which provides at the output the desired pre-set clock phase.
