Reduced Complexity Linear Phase Detector

View page
US Patent:
6806740, Oct 19, 2004
Filed:
May 30, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/452661
Inventors:
Mehmet Ali Tan - Irvine CA
Daniel Chan - Huntington Beach CA
Assignee:
Agere Systems Inc. - Allentown PA
International Classification:
H03D 900
US Classification:
327 2, 327 12
Abstract:
A linear phase detector includes first, second and third latches connected in series, each of the latches having a data input, a data output and a clock input, and further includes reference signal generation circuitry and error signal generation circuitry. The reference signal generation circuitry has at least a first input coupled to the data output of the second latch and a second input coupled to the data output of the third latch. The error signal generation circuitry has at least a first input coupled to the data input of the first latch and a second input coupled to the data output of the second latch, and is configured to generate an output that is indicative, relative to the reference signal, of the phase error of a clock signal. The linear phase detector is preferably configured such that a first version of the clock signal is applied to the clock inputs of the first and third latches, and a second version of the clock signal is applied to the clock input of the second latch, the first and second versions being complementary relative to one another. The linear phase detector in an illustrative embodiment exhibits a linearity substantially equivalent to that associated with a conventional four-latch Hogge detector.

Phase-Locked Loop With Loop Select Signal Based Switching Between Frequency Detection And Phase Detection

View page
US Patent:
6812797, Nov 2, 2004
Filed:
May 30, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/452657
Inventors:
Geert Adolf De Veirman - Corona del Mar CA
Mehmet Ali Tan - Irvine CA
Xinyu Chen - Irvine CA
Assignee:
Agere Systems Inc. - Allentown PA
International Classification:
H03L 7087
US Classification:
331 11, 331 17, 331 25, 327156, 327157
Abstract:
A phase-locked loop (PLL) includes at least first and second loops, and loop selection circuitry coupled to the first and second loops, the loop selection circuitry being responsive to at least one loop select signal to control transition from an operating mode of one of the first and second loops to an operating mode of the other of the first and second loops. In an illustrative embodiment, the PLL comprises a dual-loop PLL with the first and second loops corresponding to respective frequency and phase loops, and the loop selection circuitry is configured such that the loop select signal as applied to a control input of a current-generating component of the first loop represents a delayed and inverted version of the loop select signal as applied to a control input of a current-generating component of the second loop.

Circuit For Controlling Field Effect Device Transconductance

View page
US Patent:
6828831, Dec 7, 2004
Filed:
May 30, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/452089
Inventors:
Mehmet Ali Tan - Irvine CA
Geert Adolf DeVeirman - Corona del Mar CA
Assignee:
Agere Systems Inc. - Allentown PA
International Classification:
H02M 1100
US Classification:
327103
Abstract:
A transconductance control circuit includes a master device having first and second field effect devices coupled to respective first and second current sources, a reference device coupled to a third current source, and comparison circuitry. The comparison circuitry includes at least first, second and third inputs and at least one output, with the first input configured to receive a reference signal associated with the reference device, the second and third inputs coupled to respective terminals of the first and second field effect devices, and the output coupled to current control inputs of one or more of the current sources. The transconductance control circuit provides a feedback control arrangement in which, for example, the comparison circuitry output is utilized to adjust one or more of the current sources such that a difference signal V between voltages at the respective terminals of the first and second field effect devices converges to a reference signal V. As a result, the transconductance g of the first field effect device converges to the conductance of the reference device.

Programmable Voltage-Controlled Oscillator With Self-Calibration Feature

View page
US Patent:
6842082, Jan 11, 2005
Filed:
May 30, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/452091
Inventors:
Mehmet Ali Tan - Irvine CA, US
Assignee:
Agere Systems Inc. - Allentown PA
International Classification:
H03B 504
H03B 524
H03L 100
US Classification:
331175, 331 57
Abstract:
A programmable voltage-controlled oscillator includes a ring oscillator having a number of selectable delay stages, and a resistor value detection circuit configurable for coupling to an external resistor. The resistor value detection circuit includes at least one internal resistor and is operative to generate, based at least in part on a value of the external resistor, an output signal indicative of a value of the internal resistor. The output signal is utilizable in controlling an oscillation frequency of the ring oscillator based at least in part on selection of one or more of the selectable delay stages. The voltage-controlled oscillator may be utilized in a phase-locked loop of clock recovery circuit in an integrated circuit, and in numerous other applications.
