In this paper, we propose the low fractional spur phase-locked loop(PLL) with multiple phase-frequency detector(PFD). The fractional spurs are suppressed by using a new PFD. The new PFD architecture with two different edge detection methods is used to suppress the fractional spur by limiting a maximum width of the output signals of PFD. The proposed PLL was simulated by HSPICE using a 0.35m CMOS parameters. The simulation results show that the proposed PLL is able to suppress fractional spurs with fast locking.

A new lightwave locking technique which can be used in tuning the wavelength of a local laser diode to the reference wavelength is presented in this paper. The optical frequency from the reference laser source and the optical frequency from the local slave VCO laser are heterodyned on a optical receiver, resulting in the 1.5GHz RF signal corresponding to the difference frequency between two input optical signals. The difference frequency is locked to the reference 1.5GHz oscillator source in off-set frequency locking loop. Using the commercialized microwave components, frequency difference detector can be easily established to lock the lightwave. The optical frequency of 1.55um laser diode which keeps the frequency off-set of 1.5GHz is locked to the input reference optical signal with the locking range of 320MHz.

본 논문에서는 위상획득과정과 동기과정에서 trade-off 현상을 향상시킨 듀얼 위상 주파수 검출기를 제안하여 차지펌프 PLL을 설계하였다. 듀얼 위상 주파수 검출기는 상승에지에서 동작하는 POSITIVE 위상 주파수 검출기와 하강에지에서 동작하는 NEGATIVE 위상 주파수 검출기로 구성되어 있다. 제안한 차지펌프는 전류뺄셈회로를 이용하여 전류 부정합을 감소시켰으며, reference spurs와 전압제어발진기의 변동을 감소시킬 수 있도록 구현하였다. 제안한 차지펌프 PLL은 0.25$\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS 공정을 사용하여 SPICE로 시뮬레이션 하였으며, 그 결과 1.6~1.85GHz의 넓은 동기범위를 나타내었다.

본 논문에서는 위상/주파수 검출기을 설계시 문제가 되는 Reference Spur을 없게 하여 Low Noise를 구현할 수 있는 No Spike PFD(Phase Frequency Detector)를 제안한다. 위상동기루프의 특별한 형태로 차지 펌프 위상동기루프가 있다. 차지 펌프위상동기 루프는 일반적으로 3-state 위상/주파수 검출기를 이용한다. 이 3-state 위상/주파수 검출기는 기준 신호와 VCO 출력 신호의 위상차에 비례하는 디지털 파형으로 출력을 내보낸다. 차지 펌프 위상동기루프 그림 1 처럼 디지털 위상/주파수 검출기(PFD), 차지 펌프(CP), 루프 필터(LF), VCO로 구성된다. PFD 는 기준 신호와 VCO 에 의해 만들어진 출력 신호를 입력받아 각각의 위상과 주파수를 비교한다. 즉, 출력 신호가 기준 신호보다 느릴 때에는 출력 신호를 앞으로 당기기 위해서 up 신호를 넘겨주고, 출력 신호가 기준 신호보다 빠를 때에는 출력 신호를 뒤로 밀기 위해 down 신호를 넘겨준다. 차지 펌프(CP)의 전류를 Ip 라고 한다면, CP 에서 LF 로 흐르거나, LF에서 CP로 흐르는 전류 Ip의 평균량이 기준 신호와 VCO 출력 신호의 위상차에 비례하는 것이다.

A phase frequency detector(PFD) composed of logic circuits is widely used in a phase locked loop(PLL) due to the easy implementation for integrated circuits. A frequency locked loop(FLL) removes the reference oscillator in the PLL, and the resonator serves as a reference oscillator. A frequency detector(FD) is indispensable for the FLL configuration, and a FD, which is usually composed of a mixer is used to build an FLL. In this paper, instead of FD using mixer, a FD is constructed by using 1.175 GHz resonator composed of microstrip and PFD taking the versatility of PFD into consideration. Using the designed FD, FLL oscillating at a frequency of 1.175 GHz is composed. As a result of comparison with the FLL composed of FD using mixer, it was confirmed that the proposed FLL has better phase noise performance than FLL using mixer FD with FLL bandwidth.

An integrated 3.125Gbps clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit is presented. The circuit does not need a reference clock. It has a phase and frequency detector (PFD), which incorporates a bang-bang type 4X oversampling PD and a rotational frequency detector (FD). It also has a ring oscillator type VCO with four delay stages and three zero-offset charge pumps. With a proposed PD and m, the tracking range of 24% can be achieved. Experimental results show that the circuit is capable of recovering clock and data at rates of 3.125Gbps with 0.18 um CMOS technology. The measured recovered clock jitter (p-p) is about 14ps. The CDR has 1.8volt single power supply. The power dissipation is about 140mW.

This paper describes a dual-mode reference-less CDR(Clock Data Recovery) operating at full / half-rate and its operation algorithm. Proposed reference-less CDR consists of a frequency detector, a phase detector, a charge pump, a loop filter, a voltage controlled oscillator, and a digital block. The frequency and phase detectors operate at both full / half-rate for dual-mode operation and especially the frequency detector is capable of detecting the difference between data rate and clock frequency in the dead zone of general frequency detectors. Dual-mode reference-less CDR with the proposed algorithm can recover the data and clock within 1.2-1.3 us and operates reliably at both full-rate (2.7 Gb/s) and half-rate (5.4 Gb/s) with 0.5-UI input jitter.

A new phase frequency detector based digital phase-locked loop (PLL) of 125 MHz was designed using the 130 nm CMOS technology library consisting of inverting edge detectors along with a typical digital phase-locked loop to reduce the lock time and jitter for mid-frequency applications. XOR based inverting edge detectors were used to obtain a transition earlier than the reference signal to change the output more quickly. The HSPICE simulator was used in a Cadence environment for simulation. The performance of the digital phase-locked loops with the proposed phase frequency detector was compared with that of conventional phase frequency detector. The PLL with the proposed detector took $0.304{\mu}s$ to lock with a maximum jitter of approximately 0.1142 ns, whereas the conventional PLL took a minimum of $2.144{\mu}s$ to lock with a maximum jitter of approximately 0.1245 ns.

In this paper, the charge pump PLL using the dual PFD to improve the trade-off between acquisition behavior and locked behavior is proposed. This dual PFD consists of a positive edge triggered PFD and a negative edge triggered PFD. The proposed charge pump shows that it is possible to overcome the issue of the charge pump current imsmatch by the current subtraction circuit. Also, this charge pump can suppress reference spurs and disturbance of the VCO control voltage. The proposed charge pump PLL is simulated by SPICE using 0.25${\mu}m$ CMOS process parameters.
