I want to create a 30° negative phase shift (delay) from an original clock source:

I have a 10% duty 20kHz source V(source) below which I cannot control and need an output V(out) from it which is leading the source.
So after the first pulse the waveforms will be as follows:

I know it sounds it is against causality but I can sacrifice the first pulse. Is there a dedicated IC for the purpose?
I don't know about PLLs and have hurry to interface a trigger output of a device.
Could someone help me to find a dedicated IC and how to use it to achieve the above goal? (Or show in a diagram or simulator.)
 

Hi,

So either shift it by 330° ... or you need the ability to predict the future.

Hi Klaus,
Thank you for your answer.
If we shift by 330° after the first pulse will the output be leading source by 30°? What IC do you recommend? (I would like to simulate this in LTspice)
 

Seems to me if your 20 Khz was developed by a DDS, use another DDS and simply
offset the phase accumulator to get necessary delay/offset. So second DDS becomes
the 20 Khz master....

This would have to constrain 20 Khz to be deterministic.

So scheme requires a PLL to generate a high freq source clk for the DDS's to generate accurately
the 20 Khz. But the PLL adds latency, step response issues, etcc. This chip has multiple DDS's you can use. As well as a lot of other analog and logic and ARM and resources.

Alternatively, I am not a Verilog expert, but seems since you can afford 1
pulse delay, a pulse measurement could be made and then applied to
network to create the offset new master 20 Khz....I will let the Verilog experts
here comment on this.

What is your drop dead latency, the 1 pulse you mention ? What is the resolution
accuracy you need in the offset waveform ?

A simple solution would use monoflops to delay e.g. the rising pulse edge by a fixed time amount and generate teh intended pulse width with a second monflop. It's o.k. if your pulse train has fixed frequency pulse width. If not, give a complete specification.
 

Believe it or not, you can take advantage of capacitors' ability to advance a sinewave, and thus obtain a new clock signal which precedes the incoming clock.
This characteristic of capacitors doesn't work with square waves. Therefore it must be done in the following sequence.

1) Shape the incoming square wave so it becomes a sine (approximately). RC low-pass filters are feasible for this.

2) Send it through two series capacitors (RC high-pass filters). (It must be two stages. One stage does not do the job.)

3) The result is phase advance of the sine wave. (Call it negative delay.)

3) Amplify the new sine wave to restore it to a square wave.

I have a schematic which works in simulation.
I seem to remember making a hardware circuit which worked. It's startling to watch as the output led does indeed change state before the input led does.
