    摘要: A multi-carrier transceiver receives and transmits wireless communication signals on multiple carriers simultaneously. To generate Local Oscillator (LO) signals for mixers operating at different frequencies, a multi-frequency LO signal generating circuit includes a set of integer-N Phase Locked Loop (PLL) circuits. All PLL circuits receive the same reference frequency, but output different frequency LO signals, each at an integer multiple of the reference frequency. The LO signal frequencies are thus on an equidistant frequency grid having a granularity of the reference frequency. Spurs are also at multiples of the reference frequency, and can be easily filtered. A fractional-N PLL circuit may generate the reference frequency, making the frequency grid adjustable. A plurality of the PLL circuits in the set output a phase error feedback signal to a phase error correction circuit, and receive a phase error control signal that phase-locks the plurality of PLL circuits together and mitigates phase noise deviations between them. PLL circuits operating near a transmitter frequency are not in the phase-locked plurality, so all PLL circuits are not frequency pulled. Complex channel select filters are used for carriers not aligned with a LO signal.

    摘要: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a voltage / frequency modulation (VFM) system for determining a baseline voltage and a programmable ring oscillator (PRO) code for various dynamic voltage frequency scaling (DVFS) set points. The VFM system may include, e.g., a memory and at least one processor coupled to the memory. In certain aspects, the at least one processor may determine, for each of a plurality of DVFS set points, a lowest voltage at which a workload is performed at a subsystem. The at least one processor may program a voltage regulator with the lowest voltage for each DVFS set point. In certain other aspects, the at least one processor may determine a PRO code (e.g., coarse delay code and fine delay code) associated with a PRO at the lowest voltage. The PRO code may match a predetermined phase-locked loop (PEL) frequency to within a threshold. In still other aspects, the at least one processor may maintain the PRO code in a register.

    摘要: A fractional divider in modulated phase-lock loop circuits. The fractional divider can receive a base dividing value having integer and fractional components, and can also receive a data signal to modulate the dividing value. A shift value is used to selectively shift and scale the modulated dividing value to generate a shifted fractional component value. The shifted fractional component value can be added to the base integer component, and de-shifted and de-scaled to generate a corrected dividing value. A feedback signal can then be generated by sequentially dividing a frequency of a clock output signal by the corrected dividing value.
