    摘要: Delay locked loop circuitry for generating a predetermined phase relationship between a pair of clocks. A first delay-locked loop includes a delay elements arranged in a chain, the chain receiving an input clock and generating, from each delay element, a set of phase vectors, each shifted a unit delay from the adjacent vector. The first delay-locked loop adjusts the unit delays in the delay chain using a delay adjustment signal so that the phase vectors span a predetermined phase shift of the input clock. A second delay-locked loop selects, from the first delay-locked loop, a pair of phase vectors which brackets the phase of an input clock. A phase interpolator receives the selected pair of vectors and generates an output clock and a delayed output clock, the amount of the delay being controlled by the delay adjustment signal of the first delay-locked loop circuitry. A phase detector compares the delayed output clock with the input clock and adjusts the phase interpolator, based on the phase comparison, so that the phase of the delayed output clock is in phase with the input clock. As a result, there is a predetermined phase relationship between the output clock and the input clock, the phase relationship being the amount of delay between the output clock and the delayed output clock. Different phase relationships between the input and output clock are possible depending on the number of unit delays used in the path of the delayed output clock or the output clock.

    摘要: Circuitry for adjusting the phase of an incoming periodic signal, typically a clock signal, throughout the entire period of the periodic signal. Phase adjustment circuitry has high resolution and employs only the number of delay elements in a delay chain necessary to span at least the period of the incoming signal or at least half the period in the case of dual chains receiving complementary clocks. Phase adjustment circuitry includes a delay chain of having a plurality of taps, a boundary detector for indicating when a tap is at a phase boundary of the incoming periodic signal, and selection circuitry for selecting one of the taps from the delay chain based on the boundary detector output and the selection circuitry input such that the selected tap is the desired phase adjustment of the incoming periodic signal and that the delay of the incoming signal is adjustable across its phase boundaries. Phase interpolation between the taps of the delay chain is employed to increase the resolution of the adjustment to the periodic signal. Duty cycle correction of the input clock and the selected output clock is employed to improve accuracy.
