摘要:
The present invention relates to a false lock prevention circuit and method which is used to cause a delayed locked loop (DLL) to escape from false lock such as harmonic lock or stuck lock, when the false lock occurred in the DLL, and a DLL using the same. The false lock prevention circuit includes a harmonic lock detector configured to detect harmonic lock and a stuck lock detector configured to detect stuck lock. The harmonic lock detector includes a plurality of flip-flops configured to sample a plurality of delayed clocks and a logic unit. The harmonic lock detector compares a reference clock signal with the plurality of delayed clock signals, and detects whether or not the positive edges deviate from one cycle of the reference clock signal.
摘要:
Provided is a pre-emphasis circuit which transmits a pre-emphasis output current to an output node of an output driver in response to first to fourth pre-emphasis control signals generated by a logical operation on differential input signals. The pre-emphasis circuit includes: a first pre-emphasis circuit driven in a range between a first voltage and a second voltage and configured to generate a first pre-emphasis output current in response to the first and second pre-emphasis control signals and output the generated first pre-emphasis output current to a first output node of the output driver; and a second pre-emphasis circuit driven in the range between the first voltage and the second voltage and configured to generate a second pre-emphasis output current in response to the third and fourth pre-emphasis control signals and output the generated second pre-emphasis output current to a second output node of the output driver.
