In this paper an advanced PLL strategy suitable to UPS, compared with conventional PLL strategy using the positive sequence component extracted from source voltages, is suggested. Frequency limiter and anti-windup are added to conventional PI controller in suggested PLL strategy. Basic operational principle of suggested PLL is same as that of conventional PLL, but the difference between two strategies is that the suggested PLL can limit the change of frequency in constant range because of inclusion of frequency limiter. Compute. simulation was carried fer the DVR(dynamic voltage restorer) compensating voltage to examine the difference between conventional PLL strategy and the suggested PLL strategy limiting frequency. And the results clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of the suggested PLL strategy for UPS.

In this paper, a PLL frequency synthesizer for RSSI applications is designed by phase noise analysis. Required synthesizer performance is achieved by optimizing the noise performance of PLL components and a loop transfer function, since its phase noise, lock time, and spur suppression capability are determined by the performance of loop components and loop filter characteristics. As an application example, a PLL frequency synthesizer for RSSI applications, which operates at the frequency of 2.288GHz, is designed using the phase noise analysis. The validity of the design technique is proved by experiments.

A novel structure of phase locked loop (PLL) with a time constant comparator and a current compensator has been proposed. The proposed PLL uses small capacitors which are impossible for stable operation in a conventional PLL. It is small enough to be integrated into a single chip. The time constant comparator detects the loop filter output voltage variations using signals which are passed through small and large RC time constants. The signal from the large RC time constant node is the average of the loop filter output voltage. The output voltage of another node is approximately equal to the present loop filter voltage. The output of the time constant comparator controls a current compensator and charge/discharge small size loop filter capacitors. It makes the proposed PLL operate stably. It has been simulated and proved by HSPICE in a CMOS $0.18{\mu}m$ 1.8V process.

An all-digital delay-locked loop (DLL) for a mobile memory interface, which runs at 0.11-2.5 GHz with a phase-shift capability of $180^{\circ}$, has two internal DLLs: a global DLL which uses a time-to-digital converter to assist fast locking, and shuts down after locking to save power; and a local DLL which uses a phase detector with an adaptive phase sampling window (WPD) to reduce jitter accumulation. The WPD in the local DLL adjusts the width of its sampling window adaptively to control the loop bandwidth, thus reducing jitter induced by UP/DN dithering, input clock jitter, and supply/ground noise. Implemented in a 65 nm CMOS process, the DLL operates over 0.11-2.5 GHz. It locks within 6 clock cycles at 0.11 GHz, and within 17 clock cycles at 2.5 GHz. At 2.5 GHz, the integrated jitter is $954fs_{rms}$, and the long-term jitter is $2.33ps_{rms}/23.10ps_{pp}$. The ratio of the RMS jitter at the output to that at the input is about 1.17 at 2.5 GHz, when the sampling window of the WPD is being adjusted adaptively. The DLL consumes 1.77 mW/GHz and occupies $0.075mm^2$.

In the PWM converter, PLL(Phase Locked Loop) is usually used as a tool which senses the angle of input voltage. This is sensitive to nois and needs additional hardware. In this work, we propose a sensorless control scheme of PWM converter using EKF(Extended Kalman Filter). EKF estimates a phase angle of input voltage from nonlinear state equation using measured phase currents. We control power factor and DC-link voltage utilizing the estimated phase angle. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed estimation algorithm through simulations.

This paper describes an analog multi-phase delay-locked loop (DLL) to solve the harmonic lock problem using current-starved inverter and shunt-capacitor delay cell. The DLL can be used not only as an internal clock buffer of microprocessors and memory It's but also as a multi-phase clock generator for gigabit serial interfaces. The proposed circuit was simulated in a 0.25${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS technology to solve harmonic lock problem and to realize fast lock-on time and low-jitter we verified time interval less than 40 ps as the simulation results.

In this paper, for phase lock loop(PLL) synthesizer, we introduce a novel but simple and low cost frequency modulation(FM) circuit of a flat peak frequency deviation for modulation signal from high to very low frequency penetrating into the loop-bandwidth of PLL. The FM circuit was basically designed to compensate an amount of feedback of the loop filter in PLL. The circuit also includes the capability of the adjustment of peak frequency deviation and blocking the interference with the loop filter. The designed circuit was successfully implemented and showed the flat frequency deviation as expected in the design.

A novel phase-locked loop(PLL) architecture with multiple charge pumps for fast locking has been proposed. The proposed PLL has three charge pumps. The effective capacitance and resistance of the loop filter can be scaled up/down according to the locking status by controlling the direction and magnitude of each charge pump current. The fast locking PLL that changes its loop bandwidth through controlling charge pumps depending on locking status has been designed. The capacitor usually occupying the larger portion of the chip is also minimized with the proposed scheme. Therefore, the PLL size of $990{\mu}m\;{\times}\;670{\mu}m$ including resistors and capacitors at the bandwidth of 29.9KHz has been achieved. It has been fabricated with 3.3V $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS process. The locking time is less than $6{\mu}s$ with the measured phase noise of -90.45dBc/Hz @1MHz at 851.2MHz output frequency.

A clock system is proposed to eliminate data loss due to frequency difference between sensor nodes in a sensor utility network. The proposed clock system for each sensor node consists of a bust clock-data recovery (CDR) circuit, a digital phase-locked loop outputting a 32-phase clock, and a digital frequency synthesizer using a programmable open-loop fractional divider. A CMOS oscillator using an active inductor is used instead of a burst CDR circuit for the first sensor node. The proposed clock system is designed by using a 65 nm CMOS process with a 1.2 V supply voltage. When the frequency error between the sensor nodes is 1%, the proposed burst CDR has a time jitter of only 4.95 ns with a frequency multiplied by 64 for a data rate of 5 Mbps as the reference clock. Furthermore, the frequency change of the designed digital frequency synthesizer is performed within one period of the output clock in the frequency range of 100 kHz to 320 MHz.

This paper describes a 2.5V, 320MHz low-noise and low-power Phase Locked Loop(PLL) using a noise-rejected Voltage Controlled ring Oscillator(VCO) fabricated in a TSMC 0.25um CMOS technology. In order to improve the power consumption and oscillation frequency of the PLL, The VCO consist of three-stage fully differential delay cells that can obtain the characteristic of high speed, low power and low phase noise. The VCO operates at 7MHz -670MHz. The oscillator consumes l.58mA from a 320MHz frequency and 2.5V supply. When the PLL with fully-differential ring VCO is locked 320MHz, the jitter and phase noise measured 26ps (rms), 157ps (p-p) and -97.09dB at 100kHz offset. We introduce and analysis the conditions in which ring VCO can oscillate for low-power operation.
