Time-to-digital converter system and multiple delay phase-locked loop comprising same
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of integrated circuits, in particular to a time-to-digital converter system and a multiple delay phase-locked loop comprising the same.
Background
With the advance of technology, in the application of fully digital chips, the use of on-chip frequency doubling clocks has occupied a significant position in order to convert the off-chip oscillator input signal with lower frequency into the clock signal with higher frequency. In order to obtain a stable high frequency clock signal without being affected by phase noise, the multiple delay phase-locked loop must have the function of suppressing phase noise. Furthermore, the rise of the handheld device, low power consumption has become an indispensable condition for extending the battery life on the handheld device.
In the multiple delay phase locked loop, the vco is a loop, so the jitter generated by the vco accumulates along with the loop, and the multiple delay phase locked loop operates by re-inputting a new clock signal into the oscillator at intervals to reduce the jitter (jitter) of the oscillator, but generates spurs (spurs) accordingly. In addition, the multiple delay phase-locked loop is divided into digital and analog, and the analog multiple delay phase-locked loop and the phase-locked loop are similar in structure, but the nonlinearity caused by both the charge pump and the phase detector can affect the jitter of the output of the multiple delay phase-locked loop. Therefore, the digital multiple delay phase-locked loop uses the time-to-digital converter to replace the charge pump and the phase detector to improve the disadvantages of the analog multiple delay phase-locked loop.
Although a digital multiple delay locked loop may improve the disadvantages of an analog multiple delay locked loop. However, the use of a multiple-of-digital delay-locked loop suffers from the disadvantage that its in-band quantization noise is determined by the time-to-digital converter.

Detailed Description
The invention will be further described by the following specific examples in conjunction with the drawings, which are provided for illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
The invention relates to a time-to-digital conversion system applied to a multiple delay phase-locked loop, which mainly realizes innovation on the invention structure, and a time-to-digital converter, a digital-to-time converter, a time amplifier, a digital-to-analog converter, a successive approximation register type analog-to-digital converter and a shifter which are used by the invention are also common circuit structures, wherein two main circuits are the time-to-digital converter and the digital-to-time converter, the core structure of the time-to-digital converter is a common high-speed time-to-digital converter, and the digital-to-time converter mainly comprises a delay chain and a data selector.

The digital control system used in the invention is a common circuit architecture, comprising: divider, digital control circuit Selection logic, and data selector Mux. The operation principle is as follows: a reference clock signal REF and a voltage-controlled oscillator output signal OUT (namely, an output signal of a multiple delay phase-locked loop) are simultaneously input to a data selector Mux; the digital control circuit Selection logic generates a control signal sel to determine whether the data selector Mux selects the output reference clock signal REF or the voltage-controlled oscillator output signal OUT; when the output sel of the digital control circuit Selection logic is 0, the data selector Mux selects and outputs the voltage-controlled oscillator output signal OUT to the voltage-controlled oscillator VCO; when the output sel of the digital control circuit selectinglogic after a fixed time becomes 1, the data selector Mux selects the output reference clock signal REF to the voltage controlled oscillator VCO; the reference clock signal REF, the voltage-controlled oscillator output signal OUT and the voltage-controlled oscillator output signal OUT subjected to the signal frequency down-conversion processing by the Divider are input to the Selection logic of the digital control circuit, and are used as trigger signals of the Selection logic of the digital control circuit to determine whether the output of the Selection logic of the digital control circuit is 1. The multiple delay phase locked loop inputs a reference clock signal REF in a fixed period, so that the jitter generated by the voltage controlled oscillator VCO can be eliminated in the fixed period.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 1, the time-to-digital converter system applied to the multiple delay phase-locked loop provided by the invention comprises: a first stage time-to-digital converter TDC1, a first stage digital-to-time converter DTC1, a first stage time amplifier TA1, a second stage time-to-digital converter TDC2, a second stage Shifter Shifter1, a second stage digital-to-time converter DTC2, a second stage time amplifier TA2, a third stage successive approximation register type analog-to-digital converter SAR-ADC, a third stage Shifter Shifter2 and a digital-to-analog converter DAC;
the reference clock signal REF and the output signal OUT of the multiple delay phase-locked loop are simultaneously input into a first stage time-to-digital converter TDC1, so that the time difference between the reference clock signal REF and the output signal OUT of the multiple delay phase-locked loop is converted into a first stage digital output signal TDC1 OUT; then the first stage digital time converter DTC1 restores the first stage digital output signal TDC1out to a first stage time domain signal; then, subtracting the reference clock signal REF from the first-stage time domain signal to obtain quantization noise of the first-stage time-to-digital converter TDC1, further amplifying the quantization noise by using a first-stage time amplifier TA1, and inputting the amplified quantization noise to a second-stage time-to-digital converter TDC2, so as to convert the time difference between the signal amplified by the first-stage time amplifier TA1 (i.e. the amplified quantization noise of the first-stage time-to-digital converter TDC 1) and the output signal OUT of the multiple delay phase-locked loop into a second-stage digital output signal; the second stage digital-to-time converter DTC2 then restores the second stage digital output signal to a second stage time domain signal; then, subtracting the second-stage time domain signal from the signal amplified by the first-stage time amplifier TA1 to obtain the quantization noise of the second-stage time-to-digital converter TDC2, further amplifying the signal by using a second-stage time amplifier TA2, and inputting the amplified signal to a successive approximation register type analog-to-digital converter SAR-ADC, so as to convert the time difference between the signal amplified by the second-stage time amplifier TA2 (i.e. the amplified quantization noise of the second-stage time-to-digital converter TDC 2) and the output signal OUT of the multiple delay phase-locked loop into a third-stage digital output signal; inputting a second-stage digital output signal into the second-stage Shifter1 to obtain a second-stage Shifter digital output signal sh 1; inputting a third-stage digital output signal into the third-stage Shifter Shifter2 to obtain a third-stage Shifter digital output signal sh 2; the second-stage Shifter Shifter1 and the third-stage Shifter Shifter2 mainly achieve the function of reducing the multiplying power, and a first-stage digital output signal TDC1OUT, a second-stage Shifter digital output signal sh1 and a third-stage Shifter digital output signal sh2 are added and input to a digital-to-analog converter DAC to obtain an analog output signal DACsum which is used for controlling the frequency of an output signal OUT of a voltage-controlled oscillator, so that the output signal OUT of the multiplying delay phase-locked loop is obtained.
For example, fig. 2 is a system architecture diagram of the time-to-digital converter of the present invention, assuming that the difference between the two input signal reference clock signal REF and the output signal OUT of the multiple delay phase locked loop (Tin REF-OUT) is a sine wave, the outputs of the first stage time-to-digital converter TDC1 and the second stage time-to-digital converter TDC2 are 2 bits, the amplification factors of the first stage time amplifier TA1 and the second stage time amplifier TA2 are 4 times, the output of the third stage successive approximation register type analog-to-digital converter SAR-ADC is 4 bits, the output range obtained by three-stage addition is between 00000000 and 11111111, so the number of bits required by the digital-to-analog converter DAC is 8, the quantization noise at this time can be reduced to 16 times, and the analog output signal DACsum of the system is a sawtooth sine wave signal. If the amplification factor of the second-stage time amplifier TA2 is increased under the condition that the power consumption is allowed and the input of the successive approximation register type analog-to-digital converter SAR-ADC is not exceeded, assuming that the amplification factor is changed to 8 times, the quantization noise can be reduced to 32 times without increasing the number of DAC bits of the digital-to-analog converter, and the analog output signal DACsum output by the system will be closer to the sine wave signal of the original input end.
It can be known from the foregoing that the noise of the multiple delay phase locked loop mainly comes from the quantization noise of the time-to-digital converter, so the invention improves the quantization noise by sampling, extracting and amplifying the quantization noise, and then re-sampling to improve the accuracy of the time-to-digital converter, and meanwhile, the spurs generated by the multiple delay phase locked loop can be improved.
In summary, the multiple delay phase-locked loop with reduced in-band quantization noise provided by the present invention adds two branches for reducing in-band quantization noise on the basis of the multiple delay phase-locked loop, and mainly uses a cascade algorithm similar to Delta-Sigma to extract and amplify the quantization noise by sampling, and then re-sampling to improve the precision of the time-to-digital converter to improve the quantization noise, thereby improving the generation of the multiple delay phase-locked loop spurs. In addition, the successive approximation register type analog-digital converter is used, so that the amplification factor of the second-stage time amplifier is more selected, and the size of the second-stage time amplifier can be determined according to the power consumption of the multiple delay phase-locked loop and the required precision of the time-digital converter. The use of the shifter reduces the number of digital-to-analog converters and reduces the power consumption of the whole circuit.
While the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, it should be understood that the above description should not be taken as limiting the invention. Various modifications and alterations to this invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art upon reading the foregoing description. Accordingly, the scope of the invention should be determined from the following claims.
