This paper describes a high resolution DLL(Delay Locked Loop) using all digital circuits. The proposed architecture is based on the three stage of coarse, fine and ultra fine phase tuning block which has a phase detector, selection block and delay line respectively. The first stage, the ultra fine phase tuning block, is tune to accomplish high resolution using a vernier delay line. The second and third stage, the coarse and fine tuning block, are tuning the phase margin of Unit Delay using the delay line and are similar to each other. It was simulated in 0.35um CMOS technology under 3.3V supply using HSPICE simulator. The simulation result shows the phase resolution can be down to lops with the operating range of 250MHz to 800MHz.

A recovered jitter of CDR(Clock and Data Recovery) Circuit based on Dual-loop DLL(Delay Locked Loop) for data recovery in high speed serial data communication is changed by depending on the input data and reference clock frequency. In this paper, 2-step DPC which has constant jitter performance for wide-range input frequency is proposed. The designed prototype 2-step CDR using proposed 2-step DPC has operation frequency between 200Mbps and 4Gbps. Average delay step of 2-step DPC is 10ps. Designed CDR circuit was tested with 0.18um CMOS process.

This paper describes a phase-locked loop (PLL) that generates a 51-phase clock with the operating frequency of 125MHz. To generate 51-phase clock with a frequency of 125 MHz, the proposed PLL uses three voltage controlled oscillators (VCOs) which are connected by resistors. Each VCO consists of 17 delay-cells. An resistor averaging scheme, which makes three VCOs to connect with each other, makes it possible to generates 51-phase clock of the same phase difference. The proposed PLL is designed by using 65 nm CMOS process with a 1.0 V supply. At the operating frequency of 125 MHz, the simulated DNL and peak-to-peak jitter are +0.0016/-0.0020 LSB and 1.07 ps, respectively. The area and power consumption of the implemented PLL are $290{\times}260{\mu}m^2$ and 2.5 mW, respectively.

New types of PFD (phase-frequency detector) are proposed with reset time and propagation delay reduced. The perfomrance of our proposed PFDs are confirmed by SPICE simulation with 0.8.mu.m CMOS process parameter. As a result of simulation, the reset time of PFDs are 0.32 nsec and 0.030 nsec in capture-process. The proposed PFDs can be used in hihg-speed phase-licked loop (PLL).

In this paper, we present a phase coherent all-digital transceiver for underwater acoustic communication, which allows the system to reduce complexity and increase robustness in time variant underwater environments. It is designed in the digital domain except for transducers and amplifiers and implemented by using a multiple digital signal processors (DSPs) system. For phase coherent reception, conventional systems employed phase-locked loop (PLL) and delay-locked loop (DLL) for synchronization, but this paper suggests a frame synchronization scheme based on the quadrature receiver structure without using phase information. We show experimental results in the underwater anechoic basin at MOERI. The results show that the adaptive equalizer compensates frame synchronization error and the correction capability is dependent on the length of equalizer.

For a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver, it is known that a Vector Delay Locked Loop (DLL) in which the code signals of each satellite are tracked in parallel by using navigation results shows better performance in the aspect of the tracking accuracy and the robustness than that of a Scalar DLL. However, the quantitative analysis and the logical grounds for that performance enhancement of the Vector DLL are not sufficient. This paper, therefore, proposes the structure of the GPS receiver with the Vector DLL and analyzes the performance of it. The tracking and the positioning accuracy of the Vector DLL are theoretically analyzed and confirmed by simulation results. From the simulation results, it can be seen that the tracking and positioning accuracy has been improved about 30% in case that the receiver is static and the positioning is conducted for every Pre-detection Integration Time (PIT) while C/N0 is 45 dB-Hz.

In this paper, a novel 622Mbps burst-mode clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit is proposed for passive optical network (PON) applications. The CDR circuits are implemented with 0.35um CMOS process technology. Locking dynamics is accomplished with instantaneous feature and data are sampled at an optimal timing. This is realized by seven different delay configurations, which are generated from precisely-controlled delay buffers. The experimental results show that the proposed CDR circuits are operating as expected, recovering an incoming 622Mbps burst-mode input data without errors.

This paper presents a delay-locked-loop-based clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit design with a nB(n+2)B data formatting scheme for a high-speed serial display interface. The nB(n+2)B data is formatted by inserting a '01' clock information pattern in every piece of N-bit data. The proposed CDR recovers clock and data in 1:10 demultiplexed form without an external reference clock. To validate the feasibility of the scheme, a 1.7-Gbps CDR based on the proposed scheme is designed, simulated, and fabricated. Input data patterns were formatted as 10B12B for a high-performance display interface. The proposed CDR consumes approximately 8 mA under a 3.3-V power supply using a 0.35-${\mu}m$ CMOS process and the measured peak-to-peak jitter of the recovered clock is 44 ps.
