800/1000 MHz DLL-based frequency multiplier

Overview

090TSMC_MDLL_01 is a clock multiplier accept an input clock and generates a phase-locked output clock at a multiple of the input clock frequency. As with a DLL, each rising edge of the input clock zeros the phase error of the loop. Hence this circuit combines the low phase noise of a DLL with the clock multiplication ability of a PLL. A divide-by-M counter provides a programmable multiplication ratio for the MDLL.
The block is fabricated in TSMC 90 nm CMOS Logic Process.
