A driver circuit includes a first deglitcher circuit that delays a rising edge or a falling edge of an input signal according to a mode control signal and supplies a first output signal. A second deglitcher circuit receives the first output signal and delays either a rising edge or a falling edge of the first output signal by a second delay according to the mode control signal and supplies a second output signal. Logic gates combine the first and second output signals to supply gate control signals for output transistors to drive the driver circuit output. A sum of the first delay and the second delay determines the total deglitch time defining a pulse width of pulses that are suppressed by the driver circuit and the second delay determines a non-overlap time. The non-overlap time overlaps in time with the total deglitch time.

A comparator includes a first-stage op amp circuit, a second-stage op amp circuit, a bias circuit and a clamping circuit. The first-stage op amp circuit includes two voltage input terminals and a voltage output terminal; the second-stage op amp circuit is connected with the bias circuit and the voltage output terminal of the first-stage op amp circuit; and the clamping circuit is connected with the voltage output terminal of the first-stage op amp circuit. By adding a clamping circuit in the comparator, the highest voltage at the voltage output terminal of the first-stage op amp circuit can be clamped to a preset voltage. During the operation of the comparator, the voltage change range of the voltage output terminal of the first-stage op amp circuit is smaller, which reduces the discharge delay of the voltage output terminal of the first-stage op amp circuit, thereby increasing the flip speed of the comparator.

A first input node receives a first input signal and a second input node receives a second input signal. The first and second input signals are in phase quadrature. An edge detector circuit senses the first input signal and produces a pulsed signal indicative of edges detected in the first input signal. A pulse skip and reset circuit senses the pulsed signal and the second input signal, and produces a reset signal indicative of pulses detected in the pulsed signal while the second input signal is de-asserted. A sampling circuit senses the second input signal and the reset signal, and produces an output signal that is deasserted in response to assertion of the second input signal and is asserted in response to a pulse being detected in the reset signal.
