    摘要: A circuit receives an input clock pulse signal characterized by a first frequency and a first pulse width, and produces an output pulse signal characterized by a second frequency that is half of the first frequency and a second pulse width that is equal to the first pulse width. The circuit also includes a first D-flipflop, a first inverter, a first Schmitt trigger, and a first AND gate. The first D-flipflop includes a clock input terminal for receiving the input clock pulse signal and an output terminal for producing a first data output. The first inverter couples the output terminal and a data input terminal of the first D-flipflop. A first Schmitt trigger receives the input clock pulse signal and provides a first delayed input clock signal. The first AND gate receives the first data output and the first delayed input clock signal, and provides the output pulse signal.

    摘要: A circuit and corresponding method for determining a delay are presented. The circuit includes a delay circuit, a feedback circuit and a controller. The delay circuit receives an input signal having an input edge and provides an output signal having an output edge. The input edge and the output edge are separated by a delay. The feedback circuit causes the delay circuit to generate a series of consecutive output pulses. The controller sets the delay to a first delay value and measures a first period of output pulses; sets the delay to a second delay value and measure a second period of output pulses. The controller then calculates the delay based on a difference between the first period and the second period.

    摘要: A digitally controlled delay device includes a plurality of first delay stages connected in series between a first input port and a first output port, and a plurality of second delay stages connected in series between a second input port and a second output port. Each first delay stage of the plurality of first delay stages includes a plurality of first delay elements and each second delay stage of the plurality of second delay stages includes a corresponding plurality of second delay elements. A controller performs complementary control based on a digital control signal by controlling one or more of the plurality of first delay elements to be in a first control state and controlling a corresponding one or more of the plurality of second delay elements to be in a second control state, opposite the first control state.

    摘要: Systems, methods, and circuitries are disclosed generating a dynamic clock signal having a dynamic clock signal frequency for a data processing system from an input clock signal having an input clock signal frequency. In one example, adaptive frequency scaling circuitry includes scaling control circuitry and clock gating circuitry. The scaling control circuitry includes hardware configured to receive a performance indicator value indicative of an operating parameter of the data processing system and select a dynamic clock gating control value based at least on the performance indicator value. The clock gating circuitry is configured to receive the dynamic clock gating control value, and in response, selectively gate the input clock signal based on the dynamic clock gating control value to generate the dynamic clock signal.

    摘要: A pulse generator comprising: a first signal generating arm comprising a first inductor and a plurality of switching elements, each arranged to draw current through the first inductor; and a controller arranged to activate the plurality of switching elements in a predetermined sequence so as to generate a predetermined pulse waveform at a pulse generator output. The switching elements of the signal generating arm and the inductor together form a pulse synthesizer that takes the signal from the controller and uses it to synthesize an output pulse. Compared with conventional transmitter architectures, the functions of the upconversion mixer, the DAC, and the power amplifier are all performed by a single simplified circuit. This is both area efficient and power efficient.
