The IoT PLL is designed for very low power, sipping only 45uW at 30MHz and running from core power.

GlobalFoundries 130nm View all specifications

Overview

The IoT PLL is designed for very low power, sipping only 45uW at 30MHz and running from core power. It has a wide frequency range with multiplication factors up to 8192, allowing the PLL to run off of a small and inexpensive 32KHz crystal and still clock a 32-bit CPU at up to 250MHz. It is ideal for IoT applications like wearables and senor devices, where the power-performance profile must be managed tightly, and possibly over a very wide frequency range.

Key features

  • Optimized for very low power, running completely from core power supply.
  • Supports 32KHz reference clocks.
  • Extremely wide range of operation with multiplication factors over 8,000.
  • Small area, delivered as a single hard macro with guardrings and isolation.
  • Flexible and highly programmable.
  • Ideal for low power and cost sensitive applications such as IoT wearables and remote sensors.

Creating a Frequency Plan for a System using a PLL

How do you ensure that every part of a system receives the clock it needs—without wasting power or sacrificing performance? The answer lies in creating a well-structured frequency plan built around a PLL.

Specifying a PLL Part 3: Jitter Budgeting for Synthesis

This white paper is aimed at system architects and physical implementation leaders working on the design of SoCs. It can be confusing to understand the impact of different jitter sources and how to calculate a jitter budget when specifying a digital system. This white paper explains how jitter changes the period of a clock and how to ensure that jitter has correctly been accounted for in the calculations for timing closure.
