    Abstract: Provided is a time-to-digital converter. The time-to-digital converter includes several delay circuits, an adder configured to count outputs of the delay circuits, and a least significant bit (LSB) truncation circuit configured to truncate a predetermined number of LSBs from a result output by the adder. The time-to-digital converter is configured to determine a time interval between a start signal and a stop signal within one cycle of a clock having a predetermined period.

    Abstract: A semiconductor package comprises a lower package comprising a lower substrate, a lower semiconductor chip mounted on a surface of the lower substrate, connection terminals between the lower substrate and the lower semiconductor chip, and a protection film covering the lower semiconductor chip. An upper package is spaced apart from the lower package on an upper surface of the lower substrate, the upper package comprising an upper substrate and an upper semiconductor chip. Connections are present between the lower substrate and the upper substrate to horizontally surround the lower semiconductor chip. A molding film is on the upper surface of the lower substrate to fill spaces between the connection terminals and the connections. An uppermost surface of the protection film is positioned at substantially a same vertical level as an uppermost surface of the molding film and is spaced apart from the upper package.

    Abstract: A phase locked loop having a dual bandwidth is disclosed. The phase locked loop divides a loop filter into a zero filter and a pole filter, disposes the zero filter in front of a phase-frequency detector (PFD), and performs high-pass filtering on a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) noise with a maximum bandwidth and performs low-pass filtering on a charge pump noise (CP noise) with a minimum bandwidth to divide the VCO noise and the CP noise.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a capacitor with reduced oxygen defects at an interface between a dielectric layer and an electrode of the capacitor. The semiconductor device includes a lower metal layer; a dielectric layer on the lower metal layer and containing a first metal; a sacrificial layer on the dielectric layer and containing a second metal; and an upper metal layer on the sacrificial layer. An electronegativity of the second metal in the sacrificial layer is greater than an electronegativity of the first metal in the dielectric layer.
