چکیده
This paper presents an all-digital phase-locked loop (PLL) using a voltage-domain digitization realized by an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). It consists of an 18b Class-C digitally-controlled oscillator (DCO), 4b comparator, digital loop filter (DLF), and frequency-locked loop (FLL). Implemented in 65nm CMOS technology, the proposed PLL reaches an in-band phase noise of -112dBc/Hz and an RMS jitter of 380fs at 2.2GHz oscillation frequency. An FOM of -242dB has been achieved with a power consumption of only 4.2 mW.

In a classical PLL, the phase detector (PD) and charge pump (CP) noise is multiplied by N, when referred to the VCO output, due to the divide-by-N in the feedback path. It often dominates the in-band phase noise and limits the achievable PLL jitter·power Figure-Of-Merit (FOM). A subsampling PLL uses a PD that sub-samples the high frequency VCO output with the reference clock. The PD and CP nois...

A clock with low phase-noise/jitter is a prerequisite for high-performance ADCs, wireline and optical data links and radio transceivers. This paper presents a 2.2GHz clock-generation PLL. It uses a phase-detector/charge-pump (PD/CP) that sub-samples the VCO output with the reference clock. The PLL does not need frequency divider in locked state and achieves a low in-band phase noise values at l...

This paper describes a novel energy-efficient, high-speed ADC architecture combining a flash ADC and a TDC. A high conversion rate can be obtained owing to the flash coarse ADC, and low-power dissipation can be attained using the TDC as a fine ADC. Moreover, a capacitive coupled ramp circuit is proposed to achieve high linearity. A test chip was fabricated using 65-nm digital CMOS technology. T...
متن کاملSampling Phase Detection
In PLL designs, a wide loop bandwidth is often desired as it offers fast settling time, reduces on-chip loop filter area and sensitivity of the VCO to pulling. The reference spur is a major issue when the bandwidth is increased, because ripples on the VCO control line undergo less filtering by the loop filter. This paper proposes design techniques based on sub-sampling phase detection to reduce...
