Phase locked loop circuits, clock signal generators comprising digital-to-time convert circuits, operating methods thereof and wireless communication devices
Abstract:
Provided is clock signal generator configured to generate a target output clock signal based on a reference clock signal, the clock signal generator includes a digital-to-time converter (DTC) configured to delay a reference clock signal based on an input code to generate a delay clock signal, and output the delay clock signal, a DTC controller configured to determine an initial gain value of the DTC based on a result of comparing at least one delay amount of the DTC with a period of a previously generated output clock signal, and generate the input code based on the initial gain value, and a phase locked loop configured to generate the target output clock signal based on the delay clock signal and a division clock signal of the previously generated output clock signal, the target output clock signal being locked to the delay clock signal.
