摘要:
An apparatus for generating a compensation signal for a power converter where the second harmonic ripple on the voltage bus is substantially removed from the compensation signal. The apparatus comprises a frequency-locked clock generator, a bus voltage data generator, a stack, and a compensation signal generator. The frequency-locked clock is coupled to the power converter voltage bus that contains harmonics of the AC line frequency. The clock generator frequency locks to the second harmonic of the AC line frequency and creates a system clock which is used for the synchronous operations throughout the apparatus. The bus-voltage data generator inputs a power converter scaled-bus voltage, generates bus-voltage data at a sampling rate which is determined by the coupled system clock. The output of the bus-voltage generator is input into a stack. The output of the stack is coupled to a summer to remove the second harmonic ripple, and is used by a modified PID′ filter to generate a compensation signal for a power converter controller.

The present invention provides an improved frequency doubling circuit, with adjustable phase offset. Briefly, rather than using the traditional equations cos (2ωt)=cos 2(ωt)−sin 2(ωt) and sin(2ωt)=2 sin(ωt)cos(ωt), the quadrature output signals are generated utilizing mixers, each having two input signals, separated in phase by the same offset. This minimizes the effects of the non-linearities introduced by the mixer, which therefore reduces amplitude mismatch between the quadrature signals. Also, the phase offset of the quadrature output signals can be tuned and calibrated using a phase shifting circuit. This phase shifting circuit realizes a tuning range of approximately 5° in programmable steps. This combination of circuits can be used to minimize the amplitude mismatch and phase errors, thereby reducing the amplitude of and interference caused by transmission of the image frequency to the receivers input.

A divider control circuit includes a first and a second delta sigma modulator configured to generate a divider control signal for a fractional-N divider and a fractional signal indicative of a phase error in the divider output. The fractional signal is supplied for control of an interpolator circuit. The divider control circuit may be implemented as a look-ahead circuit where two or more divider control signals and fractional signals are generated during a single cycle to allow the divider control circuit to be run at a reduced clock rate.

A frequency multiplier is disclosed. A plurality of voltage regulators each regulate levels of voltages at first and second common nodes in response to a corresponding one of input signals from a voltage-controlled delay line. An input buffer charges the first node or discharges the second node in response to a feedback signal. An output buffer regulates a level of a voltage at an output node and outputs a frequency-multiplied clock signal and the feedback signal corresponding to the voltage level of the output node. A discharge circuit discharges the first node before a rising edge of each of the input signals from the voltage-controlled delay line is inputted. A charge circuit charges the second node before the rising edge of each of the input signals from the voltage-controlled delay line is inputted.

A frequency divider using a clock source with a plurality of phase signals of a multi-phase oscillator. In one version, the divider includes a plurality of spot-moving stages that are connected to form a ring. Spot-moving stages are stages that advance a one or a zero, while clearing the previous stage. Depending on the number of stages and the number of phases of the clock to advance a spot through all of the stages, a divider ratio is determined. In another embodiment, a plurality of latch elements is provided with a divided input and each is re-clocked with the phases of a multi-phase oscillator. The outputs of the latch elements are combined in a capacitor array to create the output waveform. An interpolator useful in conjunction with a frequency divider is also disclosed. When the interpolator is placed in the feedback path of a PLL, a fractional frequency multiplier/divider results.

A synchronized frequency divider that can divide a clock signal in frequency and provide differential output signals having good signal characteristics is described. In one exemplary design, the synchronized frequency divider includes a single-ended frequency divider and a synchronization circuit. The single-ended frequency divider divides the clock signal in frequency and provides first and second single-ended signals, which may be complementary signals having timing skew. The synchronization circuit resamples the first and second single-ended signals based on the clock signal and provides differential output signals having reduced timing skew. In one exemplary design, the synchronization circuit includes first and second switches and first and second inverters. The first switch and the first inverter form a first sample-and-hold circuit or a first latch that resamples the first single-ended signal. The second switch and the second inverter form a second sample-and-hold circuit or a second latch that resamples the second single-ended signal.
