    摘要: Apparatus and methods for disrupting or preventing periodicity in DTC circuits are provided. In an example, a communication circuit can include a digital-to-time converter (DTC) and a processing path coupled to the DTC. The DTC can be configured to receive reference information, modulation information and first dither information, and to provide a modulated signal using the reference information, the modulation information and the first dither information. The processing path can be configured to receive second dither information and to cancel the first dither information using the second dither information, wherein the DTC is configured to disrupt processing periodicity of the communication circuit using the first dither information.

    摘要: This application discusses, among other things, calibration systems for ameliorating nonlinearity of a digital-to-time converter (DTC). In an example, a calibration system can include a calibration path configured to represent a segment of the DTC, a time-to-digital circuit configured to receive an output of the calibration path and the processed frequency information and to provide timing error information of the segment, and a calibration engine configured to receive controller modulation information from a main controller, to provide calibration modulation information to the DTC, to receive the timing error information, and to provide compensation information to a correction circuit coupled to the DTC using the timing error information.
