The inventive phase measuring device includes a first A/D converter 2 that digitizes a first periodical input signal X at each predetermined sampling timing and outputs the resultant signal as a digital signal Xd, a first zero-crossing identification means operable to detect a sign of Xd, a counting processing unit 4 that counts a difference in the number of times of zero-crossing detection by the first zero-crossing identification means and calculates the difference at each sampling timing, and a fraction processing unit 5 that computes a fraction of the number of times of zero-crossing detection on the basis of Xd at sampling timings immediately before and immediately after determination of zero-crossing by the first zero-crossing identification means. An averaging processing unit 6 performs averaging by adding up and totalizing the outputs from the counting processing unit 4 and the fraction processing unit 5, thereby computing a phase. The inventive device thus implements a digital phase measuring device and a digital phase difference measuring device that allow input of periodical signals in a wide frequency range and that are capable of accurate and real-time measurement.

Systems and methods for powering up circuits are described herein. In one embodiment, a method for power up comprises comparing a voltage of a first supply rail with a voltage of a second supply rail, and determining whether the voltage of the first supply rail is within a predetermined amount of the voltage of the second supply rail for at least a predetermined period of time based on the comparison. The method also comprises initiating switching of a plurality of switches coupled between the first and second supply rails upon a determination that the voltage of the first supply rail is within the predetermined amount of the voltage of the second supply rail for at least the predetermined period of time.

There is proposed a method and system for determining a phase-alignment between first and second clock signals of differing frequency. The method comprise: sampling a value of the first clock signal at instants defined by an edge of the second clock signal; defining a sequence of samples of the first clock signal that are separated by N cycles of the second clock signal, where N is an integer greater than 1; and detecting the occurrence of a predetermined pattern of values in the defined sequence.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED The frequency decision device determines frequency of the measured rectangular signal by simple and easy means. SOLUTION The frequency decision device inputs the measured rectangular signal that frequency (or period) changes dynamically. It generates a rectangular reference signal of predetermined on width τ synchronizing to the edge based on a positive going edge of this measured rectangle signal. And it watches the order of measured rectangle signal and falling edges of the rectangular reference signal. When this sequential order reversed, it detects that length of the ON time of ON time of the measured rectangle signal and the measured rectangular signal reversed.

A system and method for detecting a phase and a frequency and an arrival-time difference between two signals (118 and 120) that minimizes delay and jitter, and has stable operation even when the two signals (118 and 120) are essentially identical. The system includes two single-ended charge-pump (188), phase-frequency detection (PFD) circuits (280). The first PFD is stable when a reference signal, supplied to a polarity determining flip-flop, leads the signal to be synchronized. A second, complementary, PFD circuit is stable, but has an inverted polarity output, when the signal to be synchronized, supplied to a polarity determining flip-flop, leads the reference signal. A polarity-selection logic-circuit (284) ensures that the first activated PFD controls the polarity to a single-ended charge pump (188) for a time-period determined by the delay between the activation of the polarity determining and non-polarity determining flip-flops of the selected PFD.

Eine Schaltungsanordnung (1) weist eine Kalibrierschaltung (2) auf, die mit Anschlüssen (11, 12) für zwei digitale Signale (E1, E2) verbunden ist und die Ausgänge (13, 14) für zwei digitale Ausgangssignale (A1, A2) aufweist, die jeweils aus einem der digitalen Signale (E1, E2) abgeleitet sind. Durch die Kalibrierschaltung (2) erfolgt eine zeitliche Steuerung einer Schaltflanke eines der Ausgangssignale (A1, A2) anhand eines Steuerwertes (R). Mit einer Vergleichsschaltung (3) wird ein Vergleichssignal (V) erzeugt, das anzeigt, daß eines der Ausgangssignale (A1, A2) relativ zum anderen Ausgangssignal zuerst eine Schaltflanke aufweist. Die Kalibrierschaltung (2) weist einen Steuereingang (21) auf, über den der Steuerwert (R), der in einer Speicherschaltung (4) gespeichert ist, anhand des Zustands des Vergleichssignals (V) der Vergleichsschaltung (3) einstellbar ist. Durch die Schaltungsanordnung (1) ist es möglich, nicht erwünschte Laufzeitunterschiede zwischen den digitalen Signalen (E1, E2) auszugleichen.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to the field phase detectors and particularly to a phase detector being formed by a flip-flop. Phase detectors being formed by a flip-flop are known. However, for the realisation of the known phase detectors several parameters have to be dimensioned individually in order to achieve an optimised phase detector. With the present invention it is no longer necessary to explicitly dimension these parameters. The phase detector has a D-flip-flop (2) with a first output (Q) for generating a control signal (OUT), a first input (C) for a feedback clock, a second input (R) for a pulse (RES) generated from a reference clock (REF), and a third input (D) to which the complemented first output (Q') is coupled and a gate (4,2) for generating the pulse (RES) from the reference clock (REF), whereby an output of the gate (4,2) is coupled back to an input of the gate (4,2). In embodiments, the gate in either formed by an additional D-flip-flop (4) or by an AND-gate (4) and the phase detector D-flip-flop (2). Furthermore additional gates (A1,A2,A3,5) may be provided to minimise the skew of the phase detector.
