Method and system for signal generation via a PLL with DDFS feedback path
Abstract:
Aspects of a method and system for signal generation via a PLL with a DDFS feedback path are provided. In this regard, a phase difference between a reference signal and a feedback signal may be utilized to control a VCO, wherein the feedback signal is generated by a DDFS. Voltage, current and/or power levels of the generated feedback signal may be limited to a determined range of values. Moreover, the feedback signal may be based on an output of the VCO and a digital control word input to the DDFS. The digital control word may be programmatically controlled by, for example, a processor. Additionally, the control word may be determined based on a desired frequency of the generated feedback signal and a desired output frequency of the VCO. Accordingly, the DDFS may be clocked by the output of the VCO, or by a divided down version of the VCO output.
