Abstract: A frequency synthesizer includes a phase-locked loop (PLL). The PLL includes a first voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) and a second VCO, each comprising an oscillator, a capacitor bank, and a bias circuit. The capacitor bank is configured to selectably adjust an output frequency of the oscillator. The bias circuit is configured to provide a bias current to the oscillator, and includes a current digital-to-analog converter (IDAC), and an amplifier coupled to the IDAC and configured to drive the oscillator.

Abstract: In an example, a system is adapted to be coupled to a load device having a load clock. The system includes a clock generation device with a pin. The system also includes a capture circuit coupled to the pin and operable to sample a value at the pin. The system includes a D flip-flop having a data input coupled to the capture circuit, a clock input coupled to a clock, and having an output, where the D flip-flop is operable to provide, at the output, a system reference event (SYSREF) signal to align the load clock to the clock, based at least in part on the value at the pin.
