    摘要: Phase locked loop integrated circuits include a phase detection circuit, a variable delay device and a delay control circuit. The variable delay device and delay control circuit provide improved characteristics by increasing the signal frequency bandwidth of the delay locked loop integrated circuit in a preferred manner. The phase detection circuit is configured to perform the functions of comparing first and second periodic signals and generating a phase control signal (e.g., VCON1) having a first property (e.g., magnitude) that is proportional to a difference in phase between the first and second periodic signals. The delay control circuit is responsive to the phase control signal VCON1 and generates a delay control signal that is provided to the variable delay device. The delay control circuit may comprise a counter, a first comparator, a second comparator and a shift register. The variable delay device includes a variable delay line and a compensation delay device. The variable delay line may contain a string of unit delay devices and a string of switches that each have an input electrically coupled to an output of a corresponding unit delay device. Each of the unit delay devices in the string may provide a fixed delay or a variable delay that is influenced (e.g., increased) by changes (e.g., increases) in the magnitude of the phase control signal VCON1.

    摘要: Methods and systems for a transceiver to acquire synchronization to a channel in a TDMA communications system by identifying a known synchronization word in a burst received at the transceiver over the channel are provided. Pursuant to these methods and systems a first uncertainty window and a second uncertainty window are defined within a burst that is received over the channel. The transceiver may search in these uncertainty windows for the known synchronization word, where the first uncertainty window is smaller than the second uncertainty window. The first uncertainty window is first searched for the known synchronization word. It may then be determined if the known synchronization word has been located within the first uncertainty window. If it has not been, the second uncertainty window is then searched for the known synchronization word.

    摘要: A signal processing circuit includes a first delay locked loop (DLL) circuit that generates a first intermediate output signal in response to an input signal and a phase difference between a leading edge of a reference signal and a leading edge of a feedback signal and a second DLL circuit that generates a second intermediate output signal in response to the input signal and a phase difference between a trailing edge of the reference signal and a trailing edge of the feedback signal. Because the first and second intermediate output signals are based on the phase difference between the reference signal and the leading and trailing edges of a feedback signal, respectively, and the first and second intermediate output signals are not derived from the reference signal, the jitter that may be introduced into the first and second intermediate output signals may be reduced.

    摘要: A method for high-speed signal framing of an incoming bit stream includes receiving the incoming bit stream in a datapath and locating a predetermined framing pattern in the datapath by finding a predetermined number of repetitions of a first portion of the framing pattern, bit aligning the bits in the datapath based on the predetermined number of repetitions of the first portion, priority encoding bits in a next cycle of the datapath, identifying a location of a second portion of the framing pattern, word aligning the priority encoded bits. The method includes declaring the bit stream as in frame. The incoming bit stream is over a datapath of at least 64 bits and the predetermined number of repetitions is at least three repetitions. Further, the incoming bitstream is a parallelized bitstream, the parallelization being performed in a shift register. An apparatus disposed in a communication system includes a shift register to receive an incoming bitstream that is configured to parallelize the incoming bitstream, a bit-aligning multiplexer coupled to the shift register that bit-aligns the parallelized bitstream according to a first portion of a framing pattern, a priority encoder coupled to the bit-aligning multiplexer that locates a priority byte in the parallelized bitstream identified in a second portion of the framing pattern and identifies a transition between the first portion and the second portion of the framing pattern, a byte-aligning multiplexer coupled to the priority encoder that byte-aligns the parallelized bitstream according to the priority byte and determining frame borders of the incoming bitstream.

    摘要: A frame synchronous circuit enables a frame synchronization in relation to high speed SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) signal to be realized with simple constitution. A shift register which performs serial-parallel conversion of an STM-N (Synchronous Transport Module-N (=1, 2, 3, . . . )) signal by 1-byte unit, is in use by way of shift registers 4, and 7 with parallel configuration inputting data alternately in every 1-bit, thus enabling sufficient time for processing operation of the data to be secured. Appearance of A1-byte on two shift registers can be generated by way of two kinds of patterns of output positions which are shifted by one bit with each other caused by input order toward the shift register. Thereby, when the A1-byte detecting circuit 6 detects the A1-byte at an inappropriate output position, slowing the STM-N signal by 1 bit at the 1-bit delay circuit in order to reverse the input order such that the A1-byte is detected at the normal output position. Subsequently, the counter 3 with 1-byte cycle which causes the latched-circuits 5, and 8 to operate is reset so as to output parallel data with 1-byte unit by adjusting to the detecting timing (phase).

    摘要: A method and apparatus for detecting framing alignment sequence within a received bit stream. A stream state memory is assigned for each possible location of the framing alignment sequence. Bits of a particular stream are loaded into the respective stream state memory. If the bits do not match an acceptable subsequence of the framing alignment sequence then the stream is eliminated from consideration by writing an exile state to the respective stream state memory. Then subsequently received bits are used to transition either to the next state if the next bit is a correct bit in the framing alignment sequence, or to the exile state if the bit is not the correct bit. After all of the streams have been exiled but one, the remaining stream may contain the framing alignment sequence. However, it may be that a certain number of correctly received bits are required to declare in-frame with sufficient certainty in which case incoming bits will continue to be processed until this is satisfied. Examples are given relating to DS1 superframe and extended superframe framing alignment sequences.

    摘要: The present invention has a hierarchical DLL circuit comprising a rough DLL circuit for phase adjustment by rough delay unit and a fine DLL circuit for phase adjustment by smaller, fine delay unit. When phase adjustment begins, only the rough DLL circuit operates; when the rough DLL circuit locks on, phase adjustment by the rough DLL circuit ends and the delay amount of the rough DLL circuit is set. When the rough DLL circuit locks on, the fine DLL circuit is caused to operate. In this way, the phase of the timing clock generated by the DLL circuit is adjusted only by fine delay units even if the phase of the reference clock is temporarily shifted by a large amount due to power source noise or the like. Consequently, in the event of temporary phase shifting, the amount of jitter in the timing clock can be suppressed to the small amount of a fine delay unit. Phase adjustment by the rough DLL circuit is stopped by ending phase comparison by the phase comparison circuit, or ending the input of the clock to the phase comparison circuit, for example.
