A dual path ring oscillator core includes three dual path inverters, each having a first inverter and a second inverter. Within the first inverter, one transistor is coupled to a first output of a previous dual path inverter, while another transistor is coupled to a second output of the previous dual path inverter. Within the second inverter, one transistor is coupled to the second output of the previous dual path inverter, while another transistor is coupled to the previous dual path inverter's first output. A first and a final dual path inverter are analogously coupled. A transient pulse will not propagate through successive dual path inverter stages. A dual to single path converter is coupled to receive signals output by the final dual path inverter. If a transient signal appears at a dual to single path converter input, stray output node capacitance maintains a correct output signal value.
