摘要:
A system and a method for self calibrating a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO). In the system, a mode controller generates a control signal for each of an automatic band selection mode, an automatic gain tuning mode, and a phase-locking mode, from a frequency comparison result between a reference clock signal and a divided clock signal which is generated by dividing a frequency of an oscillation signal, and thereby controls the VCO, so that the VCO may generate the oscillation signal which is automatically phase-locked in a target frequency with an optimal state.

A phase-locked loop (PLL) for stably adjusting a frequency band of a voltage-controlled oscillator and a phase locking method. In the PLL, a frequency band controller alters the frequency band selection digital value in response to an input clock signal and an oscillation control signal generated from an LPF of a basic PLL circuit, and thus a voltage-controlled oscillator of the basic PLL circuit alters the frequency of an output clock signal in response to the oscillation control signal and the frequency band selection digital value. The output clock signal is rapidly and stably phase-locked at a target frequency depending on the frequency band selection digital value.

A fast mode switching frequency synthesizing apparatus and method for operating in low power consumption. In the frequency synthesizer, according to a mode control signal, an SSB mixer selectively generates and outputs a signal having a frequency which is identical to an input signal RF or outputs a signal having a frequency which is a synthesized frequency of the input signals RF and LO. Frequency synthesized signals having a frequency which is a sum of frequencies of the input signals RF and LO, or a difference of frequencies therebetween, may be generated by changing wiring of a path switch according to a phase control signal.

A frequency synthesizing apparatus and method having an injection-locked quadrature VCO in an RF transceiver is provided. In the frequency synthesizer, an I signal following a frequency of a high frequency signal that is input using the injection-locked quadrature VCO and a Q signal thereof are simultaneously generated to have an appropriate driving power. Accordingly, the I signal and the Q signal thereof that are generated in the injection-locked quadrature VCO may be utilized as a local signal for frequency up/down-conversion, without being buffered. An output of an SSB mixer may be directly input into the injection-locked quadrature VCO. Also, high frequency signals that are generated in another circuit such as the SSB mixer, a PLL, or a VCO may be selected to be input into the injection-locked quadrature VCO by a selector.
