Hybrid Phase-Locked Loop Employing Analog And Digital Loop Filters

View page
US Patent:
59784253, Nov 2, 1999
Filed:
May 23, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/863039
Inventors:
Ashraf K. Takla - San Jose CA
Assignee:
Hitachi Micro Systems, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
H03D 324
US Classification:
375374
Abstract:
The invention provides a hybrid phase-locked loop (PLL) containing digital and analog portions for digital and analog adjustments, respectively, of an output signal. The hybrid PLL is simple in design. Off-the-shelf controlled oscillators, such as a current controlled oscillator (CCO) can be used with this hybrid PLL. The digital and the analog portions of the hybrid PLL are separate from the controlled oscillator. The digital portion is for a first adjustment of the frequency of the output signal, such as during a calibration. The analog portion is for fine phase and frequency adjustment of the output signal.

Phase Locked Loop With High And/Or Low Frequency Limit Detectors For Preventing False Lock On Harmonics

View page
US Patent:
45904405, May 20, 1986
Filed:
Jul 6, 1984
Appl. No.:
6/628608
Inventors:
Yusuf A. Haque - San Jose CA
Ashraf K. Takla - San Jose CA
Assignee:
American Microsystems, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H03L 706
US Classification:
331 17
Abstract:
A phase locked loop circuit (16) includes means to eliminate harmonic frequency locking. The phase locked loop includes a voltage controlled oscillator (1) which provides an output signal (V. sub. out) which is compared with the input signal (V. sub. in) by a phase detector (4). The output signal from the phase detector is integrated and the output signal of the integrator (7) is placed on the control input lead of the voltage controlled oscillator. The output signal of the voltage controlled oscillator is provided to a frequency detector (14, 17) which determines if the output frequency is within a predefined range. If the output frequency is above the predetermined range, a limiter circuit (15) provides a low voltage output signal to the control input lead of the VCO in order to pull the input voltage of the VCO to a voltage which corresponds with the appropriate operating range of the phase locked loop. If the output frequency of voltage controlled oscillator is below the predefined frequency range, the limiter circuit provides a high voltage output signal to the control input lead of the VCO in order to pull the input voltage of the voltage controlled oscillator to a voltage which corresponds with the proper operating frequency range of the phase locked loop.

Method And Apparatus For Adaptive Clock Deskewing

View page
US Patent:
55700543, Oct 29, 1996
Filed:
Sep 26, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/312355
Inventors:
Ashraf K. Takla - San Jose CA
Assignee:
Hitachi Micro Systems, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
H03K 513
H03K 301
US Classification:
327292
Abstract:
A system clock signal is distributed to a plurality of load devices via a plurality of phase correction circuits each coupled to a different pair of a plurality of pairs of clock signal conductors. The proximal end of one of the pair of conductors is coupled to the output of a delay line and receives a phase corrected version of the system clock signal. The distal end of this conductor is coupled to the load device at a clock connection node. The clock connection node is fed back to the phase correction circuit via the other one of the pair of conductors. The first and second conductors have equal path lengths in order to provide equal propagation delays. The clock signal fed back from the load device node is coupled as a feedback input to a three input phase detector circuit. The other two inputs are the clock signal output from the phase correction circuit delay line and the system clock signal. Each phase correction circuit includes a charge pump coupled to the output of the phase detector circuit, and a loop filter coupled to the output of the charge pump.

Method And Apparatus For Averaging Clock Skewing In Clock Distribution Network

US Patent:
55700535, Oct 29, 1996
Filed:
Sep 26, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/312026
Inventors:
Ashraf K. Takla - San Jose CA
Assignee:
Hitachi Micro Systems, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
H03L 700
H03L 718
US Classification:
327292
Abstract:
A system clock signal is delivered to a plurality of load devices by means of a common loop filter and delay line and a plurality of phase detectors and charge pumps each associated to a different load. The delay line provides a plurality of substantially identical phase corrected clock signals, each clock signal being coupled to the associated load device via an associated conductor member. In one embodiment, each conductor member comprises a loop consisting of a pair of conductors having substantially identical path lengths. The phase adjusted clock signals on the proximal end of the outbound conductor are coupled back as a first feedback signal to one input of the associated phase detector. Another feedback signal comprises the clock signal returned from the device node along the second conductor of the pair. A third input to the phase detector is the system input clock signal, which is also coupled to a reference input of the delay line.

Method And Apparatus For Fast Clock Recovery Phase-Locked Loop With Training Capability

View page
US Patent:
60441232, Mar 28, 2000
Filed:
Oct 17, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/733869
Inventors:
Ashraf K. Takla - San Jose CA
Assignee:
Hitachi Micro Systems, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
H03D 324
US Classification:
375376
Abstract:
A phase-locked loop with training capability that reduces the time for clock recovery of a clock signal at a known frequency embedded in a data signal. Prior to the data signal being available, the phase-locked loop, in a training mode, acquires frequency and phase lock with a local oscillator signal. As a result, the output of the PLL is frequency locked substantially at the frequency of the clock embedded in the expected data signal. To achieve this result, in the training mode, the PLL compares the local oscillator signal divided by a first divider with the output clock signal divided by a second divider. Then the frequency of the output clock signal of the PLL equals the frequency of the local oscillator multiplied by the ratio of the divisor of the second divider over the divisor of the first divider. When the data signal is available, the PLL operates in a data receiving mode. In that mode, the PLL typically only needs to acquire phase lock, since frequency lock already has been acquired in the training mode.
