Abstract:
An apparatus includes a first circuit, a second circuit and a third circuit. The first circuit may be configured to generate a first code by counting a number of cycles of an input clock signal during a period. The period may be determined by an output clock signal and a second code. The second circuit may be configured to generate a third code by a delta-sigma modulation of the first code. The third circuit may be configured to generate the output clock signal in response to the third code. An accuracy of a frequency of the output clock signal may be determined by a current value of the second code.
