    Abstract: Systems and methods for converting digital signals into clock phases are disclosed. An example digital-to-phase converter circuit receives a complementary in-phase and quadrature clock signals and produces four clock outputs at a phase controlled by a digital phase control input. The digital-to-phase converter uses first and second pre-driver modules to buffer the -phase and quadrature clock signals and produce corresponding buffered clock signals having controlled slew rates. Mixer modules produce the clock outputs by forming weighted combinations of the buffered clock signals. The weighting is determined based on the phase control input. The controlled slew rates of the buffered clock signals allow digital mixer module to provide accurate phase control. The digital-to-phase converter may also include an output buffer that compensates for nonlinearities in the relationship between the phases of the clock outputs and the phase control input.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, method for frequency division comprises propagating a modulus signal up a chain of cascaded divider stages from a last one of the divider stages to a first one of the divider stages, and, for each of the divider stages, generating a respective local load signal when the modulus signal propagates out of the divider stage. The method also comprises, for each of the divider stages, inputting one or more respective control bits to the divider stage based on the respective local load signal, the one or more respective control bits setting a divider value of the divider stage.
