The desire to integrate more gateshas driven two advances in CMOS-processingtechnology, enabling the integrationof practical inductors in genericCMOS-logic processes. The first, theuse of CMP ...

San Francisco, CA. At the 2017 International Solid-State Circuits Conference in San Francisco, imec, Holst Centre, and ROHM presented an all-digital phase-locked loop (ADPLL) for Internet-of-Things ...

Scientists at Tokyo Institute of Technology (Tokyo Tech) and Socionext Inc. have designed the world's smallest all-digital phase-locked loop (PLL). PLLs are critical clocking circuits in virtually all ...

Thanks to a digital phase-locked loop (DPLL), the ZL30109 DS1/E1 System Synchronizer chip brings timing and synchronization to multitrunk DS1 and E1 transmission equipment. DPLLs typically use a DSP ...

A new design kit enables system-on-chip (SoC) developers to efficiently incorporate clocking IP into their designs with full support for layout, simulation, and timing closure. Perceptia Devices, an ...

Two innovative design techniques lead to substantial improvements in performance in fractional-N phase locked loops (PLLs), report scientists from Tokyo Tech. The proposed methods are aimed to ...
