概要

論文の詳細を見る
This paper describes an ADPLL (All Digital Phase-Locked Loops) with a small DCO (Digitally Controlled Oscillator), low jitter, fine resolution and wide lock range suitable for mobile appplications. The novel DCO circuit is controlled by digital control codes with thermometer type instead of previous binary weighted type. Therefore, the DCO has small area and it has significantly small jitter when the control input is updated. The hierarchical DCO type with two loops makes it possible to have fine resolution and wide lock range. Functional verification and noise analysis of the ADPLL is performed by MATLAB simulink to improve design TAT (Turn-Around Time). And The ADPLL chip is in fabrication using a SEC 0.18μm CMOS technology. The ADPLL has lock range between 520 MHz and 1.5 GHz and has peak-to-peak jitter 70 ps at 670 MHz.
