Abstract: A frequency multiplier and a delay-reused duty cycle calibration method thereof are provided. The frequency multiplier includes a first calibration circuit, a second calibration circuit and a controller. In a calibration mode of the frequency multiplier, an output terminal of a delay cell is coupled to an input terminal of the delay cell. The first calibration circuit repeatedly uses the delay cell M times for generating a first delayed signal. The controller controls the delay cell according to the first delayed signal, to find a delay of the delay cell which makes M times the delay be equal to one cycle period of an input clock signal. After the delay is found, the delay cell is repeatedly used M/2 times for generating a second delayed signal. The controller controls the second calibration circuit according to the second delayed signal to make an input calibration signal have a target duty cycle.

Abstract: A fractional-N phase locked loop (PLL) and a sliced charge pump (CP) control method thereof are provided. The fractional-N PLL includes a first current source, a first phase frequency detector (PFD), a second current source, a second PFD, and a divided clock controller. The first current source provides a first current. The first PFD generates a first detection signal according to a first divided clock, for controlling the first current source, wherein the first divided clock is generated according to an oscillation clock having an oscillation period. The second current source provides a second current. The second PFD generates a second detection signal according to a second divided clock, for controlling the second current source. The divided clock controller controls the second divided clock based on a variable delay relative to the first divided clock, wherein the variable delay is an integer times the oscillation period.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are devices and methods to reduce unwanted CIMS emission in a wireless communication device, such that the transmit (TX) power level applied in a RU can be increased without exceeding a regulatory emission requirement. In some aspects, unwanted emission may be reduced by shifting or changing local oscillator (LO) frequencies during TX operation. Some embodiments are directed to a fast-locking PLL with adjustable bandwidth that can be controlled to increase the PLL bandwidth during the RX to TX transition to provide a fast locking to a new LO frequency. Some aspects are directed to configuring an LO frequency shift amount for different RUs when multiple RUs are allocated within a frequency band.

Abstract: A method for startup of a crystal oscillator (XO) with aid of external clock injection, associated XO and a monitoring circuit therein are provided. The XO includes an XO core circuit, an external oscillator, and an injection switch, where a quality factor of the external oscillator is lower than a quality factor of the XO core circuit. The method includes: utilizing the external oscillator to generate an injected signal; turning on the injection switch to make energy of the injected signal be injected into the XO core circuit, where an amplitude modulation (AM) signal is generated according to combination of the injected signal and an intrinsic oscillation signal from the XO core circuit; and controlling the external oscillator to selectively change an injection frequency of the injected signal according to the AM signal. More particularly, the injection switch is not turned off until the startup process is completed.
