摘要:
The present invention provides a method for tuning output drivers to an operating frequency based on settings used to tune other devices within the device such as a VCO. First the VCO within a PLL and clock circuit is tuned to the desired operating frequency. This operating frequency then corresponds to a discrete tuning setting. The discrete setting that causes the VCO to function at the operating frequency are then transferred to scaled amplifiers within output drivers. These drivers are then tuned to the operating frequency with these settings. This process eliminates the need to individually tune each output driver to function properly at the operating frequency.

Provided is a high speed bit stream data conversion circuit that includes input ports to receive first bit streams at a first bit rate. Data conversion circuits receive the first bit streams and produce second bit stream(s), wherein the number and bit rate of the first and second bit stream(s) differ. Symmetrical pathways transport the first bit streams from the input ports to the data conversion circuits, wherein their transmission time(s) are substantially equal. A clock distribution circuit receives and symmetrically distributes a clock signal to data conversion circuits. A central trunk coupled to the clock port and located between a first pair of circuit pathways with paired branches that extend from the trunk and that couple to the data conversion circuits make up the clock distribution circuit. The distributed data clock signal latches data in data conversion circuits from the first to the second bit stream(s).

摘要:
A high-speed bit stream data conversion circuit receives a first bit stream(s) and recovers a clock signal from the first bit stream(s). The data conversion circuit then produces a second bit stream(s) having a second lower bit rate. A control loop adjusts the phase relationship of the recovered clock signal to the first bit stream(s) to minimize data loss when the first bit stream(s) is sliced to produce the second bit stream(s). A reference clock signal produced within a clock circuit is divided to produce a reduced frequency reference clock, which is multiplexed with a test clock signal to produce an output signal. Differentially dividing the output signal produces a series of input signals for an interpolator that selectively weighs and sums the input signals as directed by the control loop to produce the recovered clock signal with the desired phase relationship relative to the first bit stream(s).
