摘要:
Method and apparatus for phase lock detection is described. More particularly, a phase lock detection circuit (20) includes a synchronization circuit (23) coupled to receive a reference signal (31) and configured to provide a derivative signal (32). A phase lock detector (21) is coupled to receive the reference signal (31) and the derivative signal (32) and is configured to provide a cycle lock signal (24) indicating whether a phase lock exists within a lock window (57) for a clock cycle.

A serializer-deserializer instantiated in configurable logic of an integrated circuit is described. The serializer-deserializer includes an input deserializer and an output serializer, which may be commonly coupled via an input/output pad. Each of the serializer and deserializer may be configured for an operating mode selected from a Single Data Rate mode and a Double Data Rate mode. The serializer-deserializer may be used as part of a synchronous interface.

Method and apparatus for a bimodal serial to parallel converter is provided. A first stage of registers is clocked responsive to a clock signal, such as a forwarded clock signal of a synchronous interface. The first stage of registers is configurable in either a single serial shift chain or two serial shift chains. The former configuration is for Single Data Rate (“SDR”) data, and the latter configuration is for Double Data Rate (“DDR”) data. A bitslip controller is configured to provide a control select signal to selection circuitry. For DDR operation, the control signal is for selecting respective portions of outputs from the two serial shift chains for providing to a second stage of registers. For DDR operation, the second stage of registers is alternatively clocked responsive to a divided down version of the clock signal and another divided down version of the clock signal which is periodically stopped.

A system for distributing a small signal differential signal to a circuit element. The system includes: a first converter configured to convert a first small signal differential signal to a first two phase full CMOS differential signal for input into the differential multiplexer; and a programmable driver circuit configured to boost an output current of the programmable driver circuit at selected frequencies and to convert two phase full CMOS differential signal outputs of the differential multiplexer to a second small signal differential signal.
