High Bandwidth Low Jitter De-Skew PLL

Overview

High bandwidth de-skew PLL for minimizing clock tree timing uncertainty. Low Power/ Low Area hard macro with industry leading jitter performance for its power/area class.

Key Features

  • Wide input and output frequency ranges
  • Duty cycle 48% -- 52%
  • Static Phase Offset 1% UI
  • Multiple synchronous output clocks
  • Small footprint (0.003mm2 to 0.04mm^2)
  • Low power
  • Low jitter:
  • Core supply voltage only
  • Built-in supply decoupling
  • Simple digital control interface

Benefits

  • 4:1 VCO range allows any frequency below the maximum VCO rate to be de-skewed
  • High bandwidth PLL quickly adjusts to track input phase variations
  • No external components required
  • No additional supply decoupling required
  • Loop automatically adjusts for any input frequency, so no complicated programming is required

Deliverables

  • GDSII
  • CDL Netlist (MG Calibre Compatible)
  • Functional Verilog Model
  • Liberty timing models (.lib)
  • LEF
  • Application Note
