An 8 GHz First-Order Frequency Synthesizer for Low-Power On-Chip Clock Generatio

提出一种低功耗一阶频率合成器架构,适用于高速片上时钟生成,工作频率8-9.5 GHz。
8 GHz输出时钟,集成rms抖动490 fs,峰峰值周期抖动2.06 ps,总rms抖动680 fs,参考杂散-64.3 dBc,功耗2.49 mW@1V
频率合成器低功耗LC VCO相位插值时钟生成
采用LC正交压控振荡器(VCO)与采样保持电路结合
通过相位插值实现参考时钟边沿注入
数字粗调与旋转频率检测的精细调谐
Abstract
This paper presents a low-power first-order fre- quency synthesizer architecture suitable for high-speed on- chip clock generation. The proposed de sign features an architecture combining an LC quadrature voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), two sample-and-holds, a phase interpolator, digita l coarse-tuning and rotational frequency detection for fine-tuning. Similar to mul- tiplying delay-locked loops (MDLLs ), this architecture limits jitter accumulation to one reference cycle, as jitter du ring
