Digital-Intensive Wideband RF Frequency Synthesizers
The evolution of CMOS technology demands new approaches to implement radio-frequency integrated circuits. This paper presents two digital-intensive frequency synthesizers implemented in 65-nm CMOS: a digital period frequency synthesizer and an all-digital phase-locked loop. The experimental circuits cover frequency ranges of 0.1 4.3 GHz and 2.7 6.1 GHz.
متن کاملSubstrate Noise Simulation Techniques for Analog-Digital Mixed LSI Design
Crosstalk from digital to analog circuits can be causative of operation fails in analog-digital mixed LSIs. This paper describes modeling techniques and simulation strategies of the substrate coupling noise. A macroscopic substrate noise model that expresses the noise as a function of logic state transition frequencies among digital blocks is proposed. A simulation system based on the model is ...
متن کاملLow Power , All - Digital Fractional - N Frequency Synthesizers for Multi - GHz Applications
Despite their high degree of reconfigurability and friendliness to technology scaling, traditional ADPLL-based frequency synthesizers tend to come at the price of increased power consumption at their feedback path, compared to charge-pump based solutions. The main power consumption bottleneck is the TDC that operates at the high output frequency rate. A modified version of the ADPLL architectur...
متن کاملTesting CMOS Digital ICs with Analog Techniques
In this thesis three novel analog techniques for testing CMOS Integrated circuits are presented. These techniques are based on analog circuits since they offer a number of important advantages compared to standard digital test techniques, such us less silicon area, lower power consumption and high operating speed. Therefore, the proposed techniques can be embedded in the circuit under test, con...
