    摘要: A sub-sampling phase locked loop includes a slope generating and sampling circuit, first and second transconductance circuits, a constant transconductance bias circuit, a loop filter and a voltage controlled oscillator. The slope generating and sampling circuit generates a sampling voltage based on a reference clock signal and an output clock signal. The first and second transconductance circuits generate first and second output control voltages based on the sampling voltage, a reference voltage and a control current. The constant transconductance bias circuit includes a switched capacitor resistor. The constant transconductance bias circuit is configured to generate the control current. The loop filter is connected to output terminals of the first and second transconductance circuits. The voltage controlled oscillator generates the output clock signal based on the first and second output control voltages.

    摘要: A fractional divider processing circuitry is to receive one of a plurality of clock signals as an input clock signal, and generate a first division clock signal based on the input clock signal and a first control signal. Phases of the plurality of clock signals partially overlap each other. The processing circuitry generates a delta-sigma modulation signal based on the first division clock signal and a frequency control word, and generates a second division clock signal based on the plurality of clock signals, the first division clock signal and a second control signal. The second control signal corresponds to a quantization noise of the delta-sigma modulation signal. The processing circuitry generates the second control signal and a digital control word based on the quantization noise of the delta-sigma modulator. The processing circuitry generates a final division clock signal based on the second division clock signal and the digital control word.
