摘要: An oscillator circuit includes a first current generator circuit that generates a current complementary to absolute temperature and a second current generator that generates a current proportional to absolute temperature. A temperature slope control circuit adjusts slopes of the current complementary to absolute temperature and the current proportional to absolute temperature in a complementary fashion and adds the current complementary to absolute temperature to the current proportional to absolute temperature after slope control to produce a temperature independent current. A current control circuit adjusts magnitude of the temperature independent current to produce a magnitude adjusted temperature independent current. A current controlled oscillator generates an output signal as a function of the magnitude adjusted temperature independent current.

摘要: Provided is a relaxation oscillator that is very small in temperature deviation of an oscillation period. The relaxation oscillator includes an oscillation circuit, a variable frequency divider, and a counter. The oscillation circuit is configured to switch between a first clock signal having a negative value as a first-order temperature coefficient of an oscillation period, and a second clock signal having a positive value as a first-order temperature coefficient of an oscillation period, based on a signal from the counter, and to output the switched-to clock signal as a third clock signal. The variable frequency divider is configured to divide the frequency of the third clock signal that is output from the oscillation circuit, and to output the frequency-divided third clock signal as a clock signal. The counter is reset by the clock signal.

摘要: Temperature-independent clock generation systems and methods are described that include a trained neural network coupled to a frequency correction circuit that corrects a crystal resonator output of a clock signal having a frequency that changes with changes in temperature. The neural network is trained with test temperatures and corresponding temperature based changes in frequency for test resonators of the same type as the resonator of the real time clock. The neutral network is trained to output frequency corrections based on a set of measured reference temperature-based changes in frequency for the crystal resonator and a current temperature of the resonator. The frequency correction circuit receives the frequency corrections from the neural network and corrects changes in the frequency caused by the changes in temperature of the resonator to provide a clock signal having an output frequency that is independent of the current temperature of the resonator.

摘要: Systems and methods for digital synthesis of an output signal using a frequency generated from a resonator and computing amplitude values that take into account temperature variations and resonant frequency variations resulting from manufacturing variability are described. A direct frequency synthesizer architecture is leveraged on a high Q resonator, such as a film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR), a spectral multiband resonator (SMR), and a contour mode resonator (CMR) and is used to generate pristine signals.

摘要: Techniques and mechanisms for determining a delay to be applied to a clock signal for synchronizing data communication. In an embodiment, a delay is applied to a first clock signal to generate a second clock signal, which is then communicated to a latch circuit via a clock signal distribution path. The delay is determined based on an evaluation of a first time needed for signal communication via a model of the clock signal distribution path. Such determining is further based on an evaluation of a second time for one cycle of a cyclical signal, where said cycle correspond to that of the first clock signal. In another embodiment, multiple different delays are applied each to a different respective clock signal, where each of said delays is based on both the evaluation of the first time and the evaluation of the second time.

摘要: Low voltage crystal oscillator having native NMOS transistors used for coupling/decoupling to/from GPIO. The native NMOS transistors function properly at a low supply voltage when on (low resistance) and a high supply voltage when off (high resistance). Oscillator Gm driver bias resistors are repurposed to degenerate the native NMOS transistors when they are off, thereby reducing the leakage current thereof (oscillator circuit decoupled from GPIO nodes). This ensures compliance with the CMOS IIH leakage current specification during an external clock (EC) mode at a high supply voltage.

摘要: A temperature compensated oscillation controller includes a temperature compensation circuit configured to provide a reference voltage through a first terminal and to receive an input voltage including temperature information through a second terminal, and an oscillation circuit configured to be connected to an external crystal resonator through third and fourth terminals and to output a clock signal in response to an oscillation signal from the external crystal resonator. The temperature compensation circuit is configured to perform a voltage controlled oscillator-based sensing operation to convert the input voltage into a temperature code and to adjust a frequency of the clock signal using the temperature code.
