In this paper, a dual-loop Integer-N phase-delay locked loop(P DLL) architecture has been proposed using a low power consuming voltage controlled delay line(VCDL). The P DLL can have the LF of one small capacitance instead of the conventional second or third-order LF which occupies a large area. The proposed dual-loop P DLL can have a small gain VCDL by controlling the magnitude of capacitor and charge pump current on the loop of VCDL. The proposed dual-loop P DLL has been designed based on a 1.8V $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process and proved by Hspice simulation.

In this paper, a novel Integer-N phase-delay locked loop(P DLL) architecture has been proposed using a voltage controlled delay line(VCDL). The P DLL can have the LF of one small capacitance instead of the conventional second or third-order LF. The size of chip is $255{\mu}m$ $\times$ $935.5{\mu}m$ including the LF. The proposed P DLL has been designed based on a 1.8V $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process and proved by HSPICE simulation.

In this paper, we propose a new digital delay-locked loop (DLL) for high-speed DDR3/DDR4 SDRAMs. The proposed digital DLL adopts a fine delay line using phase interpolation to eliminate the jitter increase problem due to the boundary switching problem. In addition, the proposed digital DLL utilizes a new gradual search algorithm to eliminate the harmonic lock problem. The proposed digital DLL is designed with a 1.1 V, 38-nm CMOS DRAM process and has a frequency operating range of 0.25-2.0 GHz. It has a peak-to-peak jitter of 1.1 ps at 2.0 GHz and has a power consumption of about 13 mW.

This paper describes the design of the Register Controlled DLL(Delay-Locked Loop) that achieves fast locking and low Power consumption using a new locking algorithm. A fashion for a fast locking speed is that controls the two controller in sequence. The up/down signal due to clock skew between a internal and a external clock in phase detector, first adjusts a large phase difference in coarse controller and then adjusts a small phase difference in fine controller. A way for a low power consumption is that only operates one controller at once. Moreover the proposed DLL shows better jitter performance Because using the lock indicator circuit. The proposed DLL circuit is operated from 50MHz to 200MHz by SPICE simulation. The estimated power dissipation is 15mA at 200MHz in 3.3V operation. The locking time is within 7 cycle at all of operating frequency.
