Title:
HIGH PERFORMANCE SIGNAL GENERATION
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2005295544
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide a high performance phase detector including a local digital oscillator which generates a digital reference signal with a frequency and a phase controllable by a program.
The phase detector stores a phase difference between the digital reference signal and a sampled input signal, and creates an index of a phase error. The detector is used in a frequency synthesizer and has the advantage that it can generate a signal with a low phase noise and accurate phase control. In addition, the synthesizer of this kind is used like a building block in an ATE system and other electronic systems which generate a low-jitter clock and waveform.
