International Classification:
H03L 7/06
US Classification:
327157, 331 16, 375376
Abstract:
A semiconductor integrated circuit having a built-in PLL circuit which has two charge pump circuits for charging and discharging capacitive elements of a loop filter in response to signals generated by a phase comparator circuit. One of the two charge pump circuits has current sources which generate current values smaller than those generated by current sources of the other charge pump circuit. The loop filter has a first capacitive element connected to a charge/discharge node, and a second capacitive element connected to the charge/discharge node through a resistive element. The first capacitive element is charged and discharged by the one charge pump circuit, while the second capacitive element is charged and discharged by the other charge pump circuit. A charging current source of the one charge pump circuit operates simultaneously with a discharging current source of the other charge pump circuit, i. e. , the charge pump circuits operate in opposite phase.

US Classification:
331 1A, 331 25, 331 34, 331177 R, 327156, 375376
Abstract:
In an ADPLL composed of a digital circuit, a technique improving phase difference detection in a vicinity of a phase difference of 0 (zero) is provided. A feedback loop comprises a PFD comparing phases and frequencies of a reference signal and a feedback signal, a TDC converting an output of the PFD into a digital value, a DLF removing a high frequency noise component from an output of the TDC, a DCO controlled based on an output of the DLF and a DIV frequency-dividing an output the DCO and outputting the feedback signal. An offset value is added at any portion of the feedback loop, a phase of the feedback signal is controlled and a value other than 0 is inputted to the TDC even when the ADPLL is locked.

International Classification:
H03L007/00
US Classification:
331/03600C
Abstract:
A voltage controlled LC resonance oscillation circuit has a plurality of capacitive elements connected to an output node. These capacitive elements are applied with voltages at opposing terminals for selecting an oscillating frequency band, so that the oscillating frequency band can be changed step by step in accordance with the selection voltage. The capacitive elements include at least one variable capacitive element such as a MOS capacitor, the capacitance of which is varied in accordance with a voltage applied thereto. The MOS capacitor is similar in structure to a MOS transistor. The variable capacitive element can be supplied at a terminal opposite to the output node with a voltage from a variable voltage source, for example, in place of the selection voltage. The voltage controlled LC resonance oscillation circuit can measure the output amplitude and oscillating frequency without affecting the characteristics thereof, and reduce the parasitic capacitance.

Abstract:
A technique for suppressing quantization noise generated due to digitizing an analog circuit in a PLL circuit is provided. The PLL circuit comprises: a digital phase frequency detector which detects (compares) phases and frequencies of a reference signal and a frequency-divided signal and converts the same to a digital value; a digital loop filter which eliminates high-frequency noise components from an output of the digital phase frequency comparator; a digital-analog converter which converts a digital value of an output of the digital loop filter to an analog value; an analog filter which eliminates a high-frequency noise component from an output of the digital-analog converter; a voltage controlled oscillator whose frequency is controlled based on an output of the analog filter; and a frequency divider which divides the frequency of the voltage controlled oscillator and outputs the frequency-divided signal.
