In this paper, novel analog duty cycle corrector (DCC) with a digital duty error detector is proposed. The digital duty error detector measures the duty error of the clock and converts it into a digital code. This digital code is then used to accurately correct the duty ratio by adaptively steering the charge-pump current. The proposed duty cycle corrector was implemented using an 80nm DRAM process with 1.8V supply voltage. The simulation result shows that the proposed duty cycle corrector improves the settling time up to $70{\sim}80%$ at 500MHz clock frequency for the same duty correction accuracy as the conventional analog DCC.

This paper presents a fast-lock dual-loop successive approximation register-controlled duty-cycle corrector (SARDCC) circuit using a mixed (binary+sequential) search algorithm. A wider duty-cycle correction range, higher operating frequency, and higher duty-cycle correction accuracy have been achieved by utilizing the dual-loop architecture and the binary search SAR that achieves the fast duty-cycle correcting property. By transforming the binary search SAR into a sequential search counter after the first DCC lock-in, the proposed dual-loop SARDCC keeps the closed-loop characteristic and tracks variations in process, voltage, and temperature (PVT). The measured duty cycle error is less than ${\pm}0.86%$ for a wide input duty-cycle range of 15-85 % over a wide frequency range of 0.5-2.0 GHz. The proposed dual-loop SARDCC is fabricated in a 0.18-${\mu}m$, 1.8-V CMOS process and occupies an active area of $0.075mm^2$.

본 논문에서는 다이나믹 주파수 스케일링 (DFS) 카운터를 사용하여 코오스, 파인 조정 기능을 갖는 CMOS 듀티 사이클 보정회로를 제시한다. DFS 카운터는 디지털-아날로그 컨버터의 비트 스위칭 글리치를 감소시키기 때문에 제안하는 CMOS 듀티 사이클 보정회로의 듀티 보정 범위를 증가시키고 지터 특성을 개선한다. 제안하는 회로는 0.18-${\mu}m$ CMOS 공정을 이용하여 설계되었다. 0.5-1.5GHz의 넓은 동작 주파수와 25-75%의 넓은 듀티 사이클 보정 범위 내에서 측정된 최대 출력 듀티 사이클 에러는 ${\pm}1.1%$이다.

본 논문에서는 고속 SoC 설계시 필요한 클록킹 회로의 핵심 소자인 클록 듀티 보정회로 (Duty-Cycle Corrector: DCC)를 소개한다. 종래의 아날로그 피드백 DCC와 디지털 피드백 DCC의 구조와 동작에 대해 비교 분석한다. 듀티-보정 레인지의 확장과 동작 주파수 및 듀티-보정 정확도의 향상을 위해 아날로그와 디지털 DCC의 장점을 결합한 새로운 혼성-모드 피드백 DCC를 소개한다. 특히, 혼성-모드 DCC의 핵심 구성 회로인 듀티-앰프 (Duty-Cycle Amplifier: DCA)의 구조와 설계에 대해 자세히 소개한다. 싱글-스테이지 DCA와 투-스테이지 DCA 기반의 두 개의 혼성-모드 DCC가 각각 0.18-${\mu}m$ CMOS 공정으로 설계되었고, 투-스테이지 DCA기반 DCC가 더 넓은 듀티-보정 레인지와 더 적은 듀티-보정 에러를 갖고 있음을 증명하였다.

This paper presents a scheme to improve the line current distortion of power factor corrector (PFC) topology at the zero crossing point using a predictive control algorithm in both the continuous conduction mode (CCM) and discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). The line current in single-phase PFC topology is distorted at the zero crossing point of the input AC voltage because of the characteristic of the general proportional integral (PI) current controller. This distortion degrades the line current quality, such as the total harmonic distortion (THD) and the power factor (PF). Given the optimal duty cycle calculated by estimating the next state current in both the CCM and DCM, the proposed predictive control algorithm has a fast dynamic response and accuracy unlike the conventional PI current control method. These advantages of the proposed algorithm lower the line current distortion of PFC topology. The proposed method is verified through PSIM simulations and experimental results with 1.5 kW bridgeless PFC (BLPFC) topology.

Simulation results have demonstrated the feasibility of the proposed high frequency resonant inverter. Characteristics values based on characteristics estimation through circuit analysis is given as basis data in design procedure. Also, experimental results are presented to verify theoretical discussion. This proposed inverter will be able to be practically used as a power supply in the fields of induction heating applications, fluorescent lamp and DC-DC converter etc.
