摘要: A method for startup of a crystal oscillator (XO) with aid of external clock injection, associated XO and a monitoring circuit therein are provided. The XO includes an XO core circuit, an external oscillator, and an injection switch, where a quality factor of the external oscillator is lower than a quality factor of the XO core circuit. The method includes: utilizing the external oscillator to generate an injected signal; turning on the injection switch to make energy of the injected signal be injected into the XO core circuit, where an amplitude modulation (AM) signal is generated according to combination of the injected signal and an intrinsic oscillation signal from the XO core circuit; and controlling the external oscillator to selectively change an injection frequency of the injected signal according to the AM signal. More particularly, the injection switch is not turned off until the startup process is completed.

摘要: A frequency calibration (FCAL) circuit and a method for calibrating an oscillation frequency of a controllable oscillator are provided. The FCAL circuit includes the controllable oscillator, a divider, a time-to-digital converter (TDC) and a calibration logic. The controllable oscillator generates a controllable oscillation clock according to a calibration code. The divider divides the oscillation frequency of the controllable oscillation clock by a predetermined divisor to generate a divided clock. The TDC converts a first period between first edges of a reference clock and the divided clock into a first period code and converts a second period between second edges of the reference clock and the divided clock into a second period code. The calibration logic compares the first period code and the second period code to generate a comparison result for determining whether the first period is greater or less than the second period, and accordingly controls the calibration code.
