发明名称 Auto frequency calibration for a phase locked loop and method of use
摘要 An apparatus comprises a code generator configured to generate a coarse tuning signal and a reset signal based on a reference frequency and a phase difference signal. The apparatus also comprises a digital loop filter configured to generate a fine tuning signal based on the phase difference signal. The apparatus further comprises a voltage control oscillator configured to generate an output signal based on the coarse tuning signal and the fine tuning signal. The apparatus additionally comprises a divider configured to generate a divider frequency based on a divider control signal and the output signal. The phase difference signal is based, at least in part, on the divider frequency, and the divider is configured to be reset based on the reset signal.

主权项 1. An apparatus comprising: a code generator configured to generate a coarse tuning signal and a reset signal based on a reference frequency and a comparison of a phase difference signal with a base-line signal; a digital loop filter configured to generate a fine tuning signal based on the phase difference signal; a voltage control oscillator configured to generate an output signal based on the coarse tuning signal and the fine tuning signal; and a divider configured to generate a divider frequency based on a divider control signal and the output signal, wherein the phase difference signal is based, at least in part, on the divider frequency, and the divider is configured to be reset based on the reset signal.
