Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure are directed to a pulse to digital converter. In accordance with one aspect, the pulse to digital converter includes an input to receive an input pulse signal; a fractional element, coupled to the input, wherein the fractional element generates a fractional pulse width measurement of the input pulse signal; and an integral element, coupled to the input, wherein the integral element generates an integral pulse width measurement of the input pulse signal, and wherein the fractional pulse width measurement and the integral pulse width measurement are concatenated as an output signal.

Abstract: A phase interpolator is provided with a plurality of slices. Each slice includes a first switch for mixing a first clock signal into an interpolated output signal and a second switch for mixing a second clock signal into the interpolated output signal. In response to a high-resolution signal, at least one of the slices may switch on both the first switch and the second switch.

Abstract: In one embodiment, method for frequency division comprises propagating a modulus signal up a chain of cascaded divider stages from a last one of the divider stages to a first one of the divider stages, and, for each of the divider stages, generating a respective local load signal when the modulus signal propagates out of the divider stage. The method also comprises, for each of the divider stages, inputting one or more respective control bits to the divider stage based on the respective local load signal, the one or more respective control bits setting a divider value of the divider stage.

Abstract: A gear-shifting serializer-deserializer (SerDes) is provided that uses a first divisor value to form a divided clock while de-serializing a serial data stream prior to a lock detection and that uses a second divisor value to form the divided clock value after the lock detection, wherein the second divisor value is greater than the first divisor value.

Abstract: A phase lock loop (PLL) circuit includes a selection mode device before a phase detector and time-to-digital converter (TDC). In a first mode, the selection mode device outputs two signals having consecutive rising edges that are spaced apart in time by substantially one period of the reference clock signal. In a second mode, the selection mode device outputs two signals having consecutive rising edges that are spaced apart in time by substantially one period of the feedback clock signal. In a third mode, the selection mode device outputs the reference and feedback clock signals. The phase detector and TDC are configured to generate a signal: indicating the reference clock frequency in the first mode; indicating of the feedback clock frequency in the second mode; and indicating a phase/frequency difference between the feedback and reference clocks in the third mode. These signals are used to control a VCO clock signal.

Abstract: A desirable feature of a SERDES design is power savings. One way to achieve power savings is by keeping the CDR circuit OFF during most of the time when a link is active between a transmitter and a receiver. However, due to voltage supply noise, temperature fluctuations and uncorrelated crosstalk, the receiver data may shift and/or the eye may collapse if the CDR is not turned ON to take care of these modulations. To address such disadvantages, it is proposed to generate a CDR profile that can specify optimum CDR ON and OFF time so that link stability may be maintained while saving power.
