Abstract:
The clock signal detection circuit includes a lock detection circuit, a duty cycle detection circuit, a first logic circuit, and a counter. The lock detection circuit detects whether an input clock signal and a feedback clock signal of a delay locked loop are in phase. The duty cycle detection circuit detects whether the duty cycle of the input clock signal is within a percentage range. The first logic circuit, electrically connected to the lock detection circuit and the duty cycle detection circuit, outputs a detecting result signal which is at first logic level when the input clock signal are in phase with the feedback clock signal, and the duty cycle of the input clock signal is within a percentage range. The counter outputs a lock detection signal which is at the first logic level when the detecting result signal has maintained at the first logic level for a first constant period of time.
Abstract:
A spread-spectrum generator is provided. The spread-spectrum generator includes a delay module and a control module. The delay module is controlled by a first control signal to delay an input signal by a delay time, and thereby generate a delay signal. The control module is coupled to the delay module for detecting a first edge of the delay signal, and thereby generating the first control signal. Accordingly, the spread-spectrum generator can spread the frequency of the input signal by delaying the input signal by various delay time, and the spread-spectrum generator can also reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI).

A phase selector including a plurality of buffers, a multiplexer, a first inverter, and a selecting circuit is provided. Each of the buffers provides a clock signal, and the clock signals have different phases. The multiplexer selectively outputs one of the clock signals as a switch signal according to a first control signal, wherein the first control signal is first portion of bits of a selecting signal. The input terminal of the first inverter receives a second control signal, wherein the second control signal is second portion of bits of the selecting signal, and the output terminal of the first inverter outputs an inverted signal. The selecting circuit transmits the second control signal of the selecting signal or the inverted signal to the output terminal of the phase selector according to the logic state of the switch signal.
