    摘要: A Delay Locked Loop (DLL) and method for generating multiple equally spaced phases over a wide frequency range is disclosed. The DLL includes a delay line, and a control module. The delay line receives a reference clock signal and outputs a final delay clock signal in response to the reference clock signal. The delay line includes a plurality of delay cells connected in series. The plurality of delay cells generate a plurality of delay clock signals having equally spaced phases. The control module generates a phase control signal based on counting a number of pulses of the reference clock signal that are input to the delay line before occurrence of a first corresponding pulse of the final delay clock signal.

    摘要: A delay line including a sequence of identical delay cells with improved gain and in built duty cycle distortion control and a method thereof is disclosed. Each delay cell of the sequence includes a current source, four transistors, and a load capacitor. A gate of the current source receives a voltage bias that controls a delay of the delay cell. A drain of the first transistor is connected to the drain of the current source. The first and second transistor gates receive an input clock signal. The second transistor drain is connected to the source of the current source. The third transistor gate and the load capacitor are also connected to the drain of the current source. The fourth transistor drain is connected to the third transistor drain. The fourth transistor gate is coupled to an output of a second consecutive delay cell for duty cycle distortion control.

    摘要: Methods and systems for input voltage droop compensation in video/graphics front-end systems. The method of an embodiment of the invention captures input voltage information supplied to an Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) operatively coupled to a bypass capacitor in a video/graphics front-end system; calculates a droop in the input voltage in ADC due to a charge sharing between an input sampling capacitor of the ADC and the bypass capacitor; and compensates for the value of the bypass capacitor using an output of the ADC. Embodiments of the invention provide an improved freedom in the choice of off-chip bypass capacitance in video/graphics front-end systems.

    摘要: A transceiver which effectively cancels interference caused by a component (e.g., driver) of a transmitter (contained in the transceiver). The input and output signals of the component are examined to estimate the magnitude of the interference, and the interference is canceled according to the estimate. Accordingly, the component need not be implemented with high accuracy/precision.
