Abstract:
Apparatus and methods for clock synchronization and frequency translation are provided herein. Clock synchronization and frequency translation integrated circuits (ICs) generate one or more output clock signals having a controlled timing relationship with respect to one or more reference signals. The teachings herein provide a number of improvements to clock synchronization and frequency translation ICs, including, but not limited to, reduction of system clock error, reduced variation in clock propagation delay, lower latency monitoring of reference signals, precision timing distribution and recovery, extrapolation of timing events for enhanced phase-locked loop (PLL) update rate, fast PLL locking, improved reference signal phase shift detection, enhanced phase offset detection between reference signals, and/or alignment to phase information lost in decimation.

Abstract:
An agile frequency synthesizer with dynamic phase and pulse-width control is disclosed. In one aspect, the frequency synthesizer includes a count circuit configured to modify a stored count value by an adjustment value. The frequency synthesizer also includes an output clock generator configured to generate an output clock signal having rising and falling edges that are based at least in part on the stored count value satisfying a count threshold. The count circuit is further configured to alter at least one of the period or phase of the output clock signal based at least in part on modifying an adjustment rate of the count circuit.
