A low-cost, high-performance 40 Gb/s clock recovery module using a phase-locked loop(PLL) for a 40 Gb/s optical receiver has been designed and implemented. It consists of a clock recovery circuit, a RF mixer and frequency discriminator for phase/frequency detection, a DR-VCO, a phase shifter, and a hold circuit. The recovered 40 GHz clock is synchronized with a stable 10 GHz DR-VCO. The clock stability and jitter characteristics of the implemented PLL-based clock recovery module has shown to significantly improve the performance of the conventional open-loop type clock recovery module with DR filter. The measured peak-to-peak RMS jitter is about 230 fs. When input signal is dropped, the 40 GHz clock is generated continuously by hold circuit. The implemented clock recovery module can be used as a low-cost and high-performance receiver module for 40 Gb/s commercial optical network.

This paper describes a register-controlled symmetrical delay-locked-loop (DLL) using hybrid delay line for use in a high frequency double-data-rate DRAM. The proposed DLL uses a hybrid delay line which can cover two-step delays(coarse/fine delay) by one delay element. The DLL dissipate less power than a conventional dual-loop DLL which use a coarse and a fine delay element and control separately. Additionally, this DLL not only achieves small phase resolution compared to the conventional digital DLL's when it is locked but it also has a great simple delay line compared to a complex dual-loop DLL.

In distributed generation systems, a grid-connected inverter should operate with synchronization to grid voltage. Considering that synchronization requires the phase angle of grid voltage, a phase locked loop (PLL) scheme is often used. The synchronous reference frame phase locked loop (SRF-PLL) is generally known to provide reasonable performance under ideal grid voltage. However, this scheme indicates performance degradation under the harmonic distorted or unbalanced grid voltage condition. To overcome this limitation, this paper proposes a phase and harmonic detection method of grid voltage using fast Fourier transform (FFT). To reduce the calculation time of FFT algorithm, minimum sampling data is taken from the voltage measurement to determine the phase angle and the magnitude of harmonic components. An experimental test setup for a grid-connected inverter system has been constructed. By comparative simulations and experiments under various abnormal grid voltage conditions, the proposed scheme has been proven to effectively track the phase angle of the grid voltage.

In this paper, the Fourier-based PLL (Phase-locked Loop) is introduced with a new structure, capable of selective harmonic detection in single and three-phase systems. The application of the FB-PLL to harmonic detection is discussed and a new model applicable to three-phase systems is introduced. An analysis of the convergence of the FB-PLL based on a linear model is presented. Simulation and experimental results are included for performance analysis and to support the theoretical development. The decomposition of an input signal in its harmonic components using the Fourier theory is based on previous knowledge of the signal fundamental frequency, which cannot be easily implemented with input signals with varying frequencies or subjected to phase-angle jumps. In this scenario, the main contribution of this paper is the association of a phase-locked loop system, with a harmonic decomposition and reconstruction method, based on the well-established Fourier theory, to allow for the tracking of the fundamental component and desired harmonics from distorted input signals with a varying frequency, amplitude and phase-angle. The application of the proposed technique in three-phase systems is supported by results obtained under unbalanced and voltage sag conditions.

This paper presents a precision voltage control technique of a single phase PWM inverter for a constant voltage and constant frequency(CVCF) applications. The proposed control scheme employs an additional phase-locked loop(PLL) compensator which is constructed using the output capacitor voltage and current. The computer simulation and experiment are carried out for the actual single-phase PWM inverter and it is well demonstrated from these results that the steady-state performance and total harmonic distortion(THD) are remarkably improved by employing the proposed technique.

In this paper, we propose a low-power all-digital phase-locked loop (ADPLL) with a wide input range and a high resolution time-to-digital converter (TDC). The resolution of the proposed TDC is improved by using a phase-interpolator and the time amplifier. The phase noise of the proposed ADPLL is improved by using a fine resolution digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) with an active inductor. In order to control the frequency of the DCO, the transconductance of the active inductor is tuned digitally. The die area of the ADPLL is 0.8 $mm^2$ using 0.13 ${\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The frequency resolution of the TDC is 1 ps. The DCO tuning range is 58% at 2.4 GHz and the effective DCO frequency resolution is 0.14 kHz. The phase noise of the ADPLL output at 2.4 GHz is -120.5 dBc/Hz with a 1 MHz offset. The total power consumption of the ADPLL is 12 mW from a 1.2 V supply voltage.

This work presents a novel architecture of phase locked loop (PLL) with the current compensating scheme to improve phase noise characteristic. The proposed PLL has two charge pumps (CP), main-CP (MCP) and sub-CP (SCP). The smaller SCP current with same time duration but opposite direction of UP/DN MCP current is injected to the loop filter (LF). It suppresses the voltage fluctuation of LF. The PLL has a novel voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) consisting of a voltage controlled resistor (VCR) and the three-stage ring oscillator with latch type delay cells. The VCR linearly converts voltage into current, and the latch type delay cell has short active on-time of transistors. As a result, it improves phase noise characteristic. The proposed PLL has been fabricated with $0.35{\mu}m$ 3.3 V CMOS process. Measured phase noise at 1 MHz offset is -103 dBc/Hz resulting in 3 dBc/Hz phase noise improvement compared to the conventional PLL.

In this paper, an ultra small phase locked loop (PLL) with a single capacitor loop filter has been proposed by adding a signal sensing circuit (SSC). In order to extremely reduce the size of the PLL, the passive element loop filter, which occupies the largest area, is designed with a very small single capacitor (2pF). The proposed PLL is designed to operate stably by the output of the internal negative feedback loop including the SSC acting as a negative feedback to the output of the single capacitor loop filter of the external negative feedback loop. The SSC that detects the PLL output signal change reduces the excess phase shift of the PLL output frequency by adjusting the capacitance charge of the loop filter. Although the proposed structure has a capacitor that is 1/78 smaller than that of the existing structure, the jitter size differs by about 10%. The PLL is designed using a 1.8V 180nm CMOS process and the Spice simulation results show that it works stably.

In this paper, the phase locked harmonic oscillator(PLHO) using the analog PLL(Phase Locked Loop) is designed and implemented for a wireless LAN system. The harmonic oscillator is consisted of a ring resonator, a varactor diode and a PLL circuit. Because the fundamental fiequency of 8.5 GHz is used as the feedback signal for the PLL and the 2nd harmonic of 17.0 GHz is used as the output, a analog frequency divider for the phase comparison in the PLL system can be omitted. For the simple PLL circuit, the SPD(Sampling Phase Detector) as a phase comparator is used. The output power of the phase locked harmonic oscillator is 2.23 dBm at 17 GHz. The fundamental and 3rd harmonic suppressions are -31.5 dBc and -29.0 dBc, respectively. The measured phase noise characteristics are -87.6 dBc/Hz and -95.4 dBc/Hz at the of offset frequency of 1 kHz and 10 kHz from the carrier, respectively.
