The resistance and capacitance controlled delay circuit of claim 7, wherein the amount of said capacitance of the two N-channel MOS transistors is adjusted by varying size of gates of each transistor separately to adjust independently the delay of the rising and falling signal transitions.
When a falling transition is applied to the delay circuit input, the output of the delay circuit is initially high, and a positive voltage is built up across the gate to source-drain of the second MOS transistor capacitance device having its gate connected to the delay circuit output.
The delay circuit then stabilizes at a high voltage at the input of the delay circuit 10, the input of the signal detector 13 and the output of the delay circuit 17.
