Abstract:
A method for operating all-digital phase-locked loop (ADPLL) comprises a step of comparing a reference clock signal with a feedback signal of the ADPLL and outputting a comparison signal according to the comparison result, and a step of detecting whether the ADPLL is locked by using a toggling number of the comparison signal.

PURPOSE: A dither control circuit and devices having the same are provided to facilitate a clock signal generation device that increase a frequency resolution of a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) by using an output signal of an accumulator. CONSTITUTION: A dither control circuit (20A) includes a pseudo random number generator (21) and a dither circuit (22A). The pseudo random number generator includes a linear feedback shift register (LFSR) that generates a pseudo random number sequence in response to a frequency-divided clock signal; and a bit inversion control circuit that inverts and outputs at least one output bit per period of the LFSR. The dither circuit dithers an input digital code by using the at least one output bit of the pseudo random number sequence and outputs a dithered digital code. The dither circuit outputs a digital code corresponding to a sum of or a difference between the input digital code and the input digital code as the dithered digital code based on the at least one output bit.
Abstract:
A digital control oscillator includes: the odd number of first inverters which are connected in a ring-shape; and multiple inverter stages which include the odd number of second inverters, respectively. Each of the odd number of the second inverters included in each of the multiple inverter stages is connected to each of the odd number of the first inverters in a row. The odd number of the second inverters included in a part of the multiple inverter stages is enabled or disabled at the same time by a row unit. Each of the odd number of the second inverters included in the remaining inverter stages of the multiple inverter stages is enabled or disabled independently.
