    摘要: An integrated circuit comprises a dual port modulator and a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO). The dual port modulator has a first input for receiving a transmitter modulation signal, a first output for providing a fractional portion of a high port modulation signal, a second output for providing a integer portion of the high port modulation signal, and a third output for providing a low port modulation signal. The VCO is coupled to the dual port modulator and has a first input for receiving the fractional portion of the high port modulation signal, a second input for receiving the integer portion of the high port modulation signal, a third input for receiving a tuning signal based on the low port modulation signal, and a first output for outputting an RF signal. The dual port modulator provides a signed single bit signal for generating the fractional portion of the high port modulation signal.

    摘要: Apparatus and method to provide a high speed digital signal processor may implemented in a substantially all digital transmitter designs. In an embodiment, input binary bits are divided into two sets of bits, where one set is provided to a binary to thermometer coder to generate an output mixed with a clock signal to operatively provide a reverse order inverted bit pattern. The other set of binary bits is subject to exclusive-or processing such that processing of the two sets operatively provides a mixed hybrid code to be fed from high speed digital signal processor. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.

    摘要: A temperature sensor circuit has a reference voltage generator that is trimmable at two temperatures for increased accuracy. The reference voltage generation section generates a reference voltage, the level of which is trimmable. A voltage divider section is connected to receive the reference voltage from the reference voltage generation section and generate a plurality of comparison voltage levels determined by the reference voltage and a trimmable resistance. An analog-to-digital converter can then be connected to a temperature dependent voltage section to receive the temperature dependent output voltage, such as a proportional to absolute temperature type (PTAT) behavior, and connected to the voltage divider section to receive the comparison voltage levels. The analog to digital converter generates an output indicative of the temperature based upon a comparison of the temperature dependent output voltage to the comparison voltage levels.

    摘要: The present invention relates to an analog to digital converter. The analog to digital converter includes comparing modules at multi levels, where a comparing module at each level includes a comparator and a metastable state determining unit. The comparator is configured to, when a previous-level comparing module is not in a metastable state, receive a first clock, a first input signal, and a second input signal, and compare the first input signal with the second input signal. The metastable state determining unit is configured to, when the previous-level comparing module is not in a metastable state, receive the first clock, generate a reference clock according to the first clock, and if a second clock that is output by the comparator is later than the reference clock, determine that the current-level comparing module is in a metastable state.

    摘要: A SAR ADC includes capacitors, a comparator, and a SAR logic circuit. The capacitors include a first set of capacitors and an error-detection capacitor. The first set of capacitors generates a first set of voltage signals that are compared with a common-mode voltage signal (VCM) by the comparator during a first set of comparison cycles. The comparator generates a first set of control signals that is used by the SAR logic circuit to successively approximate the first set of voltage signals and generate a first set of bits. An error-detection capacitor generates an error-detection signal that is compared with the common-mode voltage signal VCM by the comparator to generate an error-detection control signal. The SAR logic circuit compensate for an error in the first set of bits based the logic state of the error-detection control signal.
