A technique for calibration of on-chip resistance (R) and capacitance (C) values using an on-board bypass capacitor may include configuring an on-chip switch to selectively couple an on-chip calibration circuit to an on-chip port. The on-chip calibration circuit may include an RC oscillator having an RC time constant (RCTC). The on-board bypass capacitor may be coupled to the on-chip calibration circuit, by using the on-chip port. The on-chip R and C values may be calibrated using the on-chip calibration circuit and the on-board bypass capacitor.

Methods and systems are disclosed that provide a radio frequency synthesizer that generates precise frequencies over a large radio frequency range. The radio frequency synthesizer can provide a high resolution of frequency generation and still provide precise frequencies over a range of radio frequencies. The precision and resolution while maintaining a large operating range come from the ability of the frequency synthesizer to generate frequencies as a product of a plurality of moduli. For example, the frequency can be generated from a reference frequency using a first modulus and a second modulus. The plurality of modulo can be implemented using nested digital delta-sigma modulators in a fractional-N frequency synthesizer.

The present disclosure relates to a frequency synthesizer. The frequency synthesizer includes a phase comparator having first and second input nodes. The first input node receives a reference signal having a reference frequency. A channel control block has an input that receives a channel word and an output coupled to the second input node of the phase comparator. A local oscillator (LO) output node provides an LO signal having an LO frequency based on the reference frequency and the channel word. A feedback back couples the LO output node to the second input node of the phase comparator through the channel control block. A non-linear error correction element is operably coupled on a coupling path extending between the phase comparator and the DCO.

There is provided a frequency synthesizer capable of improving phase noise. A sinusoidal signal with a frequency set by a frequency setting part is output as a digital signal from a set signal output part, and the digital signal is D/A-converted. A difference between a sinusoidal signal with a frequency corresponding to an output frequency of a voltage controlled oscillating part and a sinusoidal signal output from a D/A converting part is amplified by a differential amplifier, and an amplified signal is input via an A/D converting part to a means for extracting a phase difference between the aforesaid sinusoidal signals. A voltage corresponding to a signal being the result of integration of the phase difference is input as a control voltage to the voltage controlled oscillating part. Then, a gain of the differential amplifier is set larger than a maximum value of phase noise degradation of the A/D converting part, whereby the phase noise degradation of the A/D converting part is cancelled.

The CMOS programmable non-linear function synthesizer utilizes CMOS current-mode electronics to provide synthesis of arbitrary analog functions. The circuit approximates a seventh-order Taylor series expansion to synthesize an arbitrary nonlinear function. Each term of the Taylor series expansion is realized using a current-mode basic building block, and the output weighted currents of these basic building blocks are algebraically added in addition to a DC current, if needed. The CMOS current mode electronic circuit can be easily integrated, extended to include higher order terms of the Taylor series, and programmed to generate arbitrary nonlinear functions.
