(author)This article introduces a low-jitter low-spur fractional-N phase-locked loop (PLL) adopting a new concept of a time-mode arithmetic unit (TAU) for phase error extraction. The TAU is a time-signal processor that calculates the weighted sum of input time offsets. It processes two inputs - the period of a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO)...journal article 2023

Gao, Z. (author), Fritz, Martin (author), He, J. (author), Spalink, Gerd (author), Staszewski, R.B. (author), Alavi, S.M. (author), Babaie, M. (author)We present a broadband digital PLL (DPLL)-based phase modulator supporting wide frequency modulation (FM) bandwidth (BW). It compensates for the EVM degradation due to the non-uniform period of the retimed updating clock and shortens the nonlinearity calibration time of the digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) with a phase-domain digital pre...conference paper 2022
