Provided herein are apparatus and methods for single phase spot circuits. In certain implementations, a single phase spot circuit propagates a spot from input to output in response to a clock edge of a single phase clock signal. The single phase spot circuit holds the spot for about one clock cycle, thereby providing higher maximum operating frequency relative to multiphase spot circuits that hold a spot for about half of a clock cycle. Two or more single phase spot circuits can be electrically connected in a ring to operate as a spot divider. The single phase spot circuits can be used to advance a spot, represented using either a one or a zero, from one spot circuit to the next in response to a clock edge. In certain implementations, as the spot advances, a single phase spot circuit clears the spot from its input via a feedback element.

A counting control circuit includes a logic control circuit and a counting statistic circuit, an output terminal of the logic control circuit is connected to a clock terminal of the counting statistic circuit. The logic control circuit is configured to receive a first clock signal and a first identification signal, and generate a counting clock signal according to the first clock signal under a control of the first identification signal. The counting statistic circuit is configured to receive the counting clock signal, count according to the counting clock signal, and generate the first identification signal which indicates a generation of a command signal for performing a first operation, here, the first identification signal is in a valid state when a counting value meets a preset condition.
