Abstract:
An apparatus comprising an accumulator circuit and an offset register. The accumulator circuit may be configured to (a) receive a plurality of frequency offset values from a plurality of sourcing DPLLs and (b) generate a current combined offset value in response to a sum of the frequency offset values. The offset register may be configured to (a) store an offset value corresponding to the current combined offset value in a first mode and (b) store an offset value corresponding to an updated offset value in a second mode. The updated offset value may comprise a difference between the offset value stored in the offset register and the current combined offset value. The offset value may be presented to a receiving DPLL during a re-arrangement of the sourcing DPLLs. Presenting the offset value may reduce a phase transient caused by the re-arrangement.

Abstract:
An apparatus includes a plurality of digital phase-locked loops and a time slotted bus. The time slotted bus is configured to couple the plurality of digital phase-locked loops. The plurality of digital phase-locked loops may be configured to exchange parameters between two or more of the plurality of digital phase-locked loops using one or more time slots of the time slotted bus.

Abstract:
A Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE) network device includes a pair of phase-locked loops including a first phase-locked loop responsive to a SyncE input clock and a second phase-locked loop coupled to the first phase-locked loop. The second phase-locked loop is configured to be simultaneously lockable to both the SyncE input clock via the first phase-locked loop and an IEEE 1588 packet stream, during a locked mode of operation, and also lockable to the SyncE input clock during a holdover mode of operation which is triggered in response to a failure of the IEEE 1588 packet stream.
