1. A phase interpolator system comprising:
- a clock to provide a clock signal;
a control section in communication with said clock to regulate the strength of the clock signal; and
a generator circuit to produce an alternate clock signal based upon the strength of the clock signal received from said control section; and
wherein said control section includes at least one of a passive circuit element and an active circuit element.
