Theory and Experimental Results of Flying-adder Frequency Synthesizer
نویسندگان
چکیده
Flying-Adder frequency synthesis architecture is a comparatively new technique of generating fractional frequency derived from reference frequency. The first advantage is that system consists of pure digital circuits. The second advantage is fast response. On the other hand, this synthesizer generates a desired average frequency, which is not spectrally pure. Since its invention, it has been utilized in many commercial products. During the evolution of this architecture, the issues related to circuit and system level implementations have been studied in prior publications. In this paper, we attempt to present the signal characteristics in time and frequency domain based on another approach, which was not so far published. The theoretical results are confirmed by simulation and also supported by experimental results, gained through the construction of simple flying adder frequency synthesizer.

متن کاملAn Interpolated Flying-Adder-Based Frequency Synthesizer
This work presents an interpolated flying-adder(FA-) based frequency synthesizer. The architecture of an interpolated FA, which uses an interpolated multiplexer (MUX) to replace the multiplexer in conventional flying adder, improves the cycle-to-cycle jitter and root-mean-square (RMS) jitter performance. A multiphase all-digital phase-locked loop (ADPLL) provides steady reference signals for th...

متن کاملDesign and Simulation of a Modified 32-bit ROM-based Direct Digital Frequency Synthesizer on FPGA
This paper presents a modified 32-bit ROM-based Direct Digital Frequency Synthesizer (DDFS). Maximum output frequency of the DDFS is limited by the structure of the accumulator used in the DDFS architecture. The hierarchical pipeline accumulator (HPA) presented in this paper has less propagation delay time rather than the conventional structures. Therefore, it results in both higher maximum ope...
