Author(s): Yanquan Luo, Mingtao Zhan, Yi Zhong, Nan Sun

Abstract:

This paper presents a power-efficient hybrid ADC architecture: a low-resolution CT Delta-Sigma modulator (DSM) followed by a time-interleaved pipeline stage which further quantizes the quantization noise of the DSM. In the frontend CT DSM, the resistive input makes the ADC easy-to-drive, and the direct-charge-dump feedback provides a high jitter-immunity; the …

A 94-fs Jitter and −249.3-dB FoM MDLL With Background Calibration of Injection Phase and Slew-Rate Mismatch

A 94-fs Jitter and −249.3-dB FoM MDLL With Background Calibration of Injection Phase and Slew-Rate Mismatch 150 150
Author(s): Dongjun Park, Jae-Yoon Sim, Seon-Kyoo Lee

Abstract:

This article presents a ring oscillator (RO)-based multiplying delay-locked loop (MDLL) that incorporates a dual-background calibration scheme to compensate for both injection phase and slew-rate mismatches. The MDLL employs the proposed frequency/slew-rate detector (FSD) to distinguish both mismatch types by comparing the pulse widths of consecutive output clock …

A Ring-Oscillator-Based Digital Harmonic-Mixing Fractional-N PLL

A Ring-Oscillator-Based Digital Harmonic-Mixing Fractional-N PLL 150 150
Author(s): Hongyu Lu, Nader Fathy, Patrick P. Mercier

Abstract:

This paper presents a low-jitter digital harmonic-mixing fractional-N phase-locked loop (PLL) using a ring oscillator (RO). To extend the loop bandwidth, a mixer with unity gain in the phase domain is adopted, which helps suppress phase noise of the phase detector (PD) and delta-sigma modulator (DSM). Furthermore, to reduce mixing …

An Antenna-to-Bits F-Band 120-Gbps CMOS RF-64QAM Receiver

An Antenna-to-Bits F-Band 120-Gbps CMOS RF-64QAM Receiver 150 150
Author(s): Youssef O. Hassan, Mohammad Oveisi, Zisong Wang, Payam Heydari

Abstract:

A CMOS 100–140-GHz end-to-end receiver (RX) is presented that integrates the antenna input all the way to the bitstream output, while demodulating 64QAM/16QAM/QPSK entirely in the analog domain. A sequential asynchronous demodulation method enables 120-Gbps operation at a notably small baseband power consumption. Fabricated in a 22-nm FDSOI …

BASS-PLL: A Bandwidth Augmented Sub-Sampling PLL Achieving a Wide Bandwidth Above 30% of the Reference Frequency and a Worst Case FoMREF of −247.9 dB at 3 GHz With a Ring Oscillator

BASS-PLL: A Bandwidth Augmented Sub-Sampling PLL Achieving a Wide Bandwidth Above 30% of the Reference Frequency and a Worst Case FoMREF of −247.9 dB at 3 GHz With a Ring Oscillator 150 150
Author(s): Tong Zhang, Yiwen Zhang, Xueke Cai, Weihao Jie, Yanling Zheng, Deyong Li, Yang Zhao, Yongfu Li, Honglan Jiang, Patrick P. Mercier, Hui Wang

Abstract:

This work presents a bandwidth augmented sub-sampling phase-locked loop (BASS-PLL) architecture that features simultaneous out-of-band noise suppression by direct and multipath sampling of the ring oscillator’s (ROs) output and in-band noise suppression via an intrinsic sub-sampling mechanism, ultimately combining the benefits of over-sampling PLLs (OS-PLLs) and sub-sampling PLLs (SS-PLLs) …

A 168 nW to 44.3 Mb/s Adaptable TRNG With 400 mV Attack-Resilient Hybrid RO Core

A 168 nW to 44.3 Mb/s Adaptable TRNG With 400 mV Attack-Resilient Hybrid RO Core 150 150
Author(s): Berkay Özbek, Timothy G. Constandinou

Abstract:

This letter presents an adaptable ring oscillator (RO)-true random number generator (TRNG) that removes the fixed power–throughput tradeoff by selecting delay-cell physics at run time. A hybrid core uses a current-starved inverter in low-power (LP) mode to amplify slew-limited jitter for high bit-efficiency at low frequency, and a …

Abstract:

This work presents a 10.0–11.5-GHz fractional- $N$ digital phase-locked loop (DPLL) using the quantization-error-compensating bang–bang phase detector (QEC-BBPD) that can minimize both the static delay ( $T_{\mathrm {S}}$ ) and the dynamic delay ( $T_{\mathrm {D}}$ ) required for removing the delta-sigma modulator’s ( $\Delta \Sigma $ M) quantization-error (Q-error). Since the …
