Book A CMOS Delay Locked Loop and Sub nanosecond Time to digital Converter Chip

Download or read book A CMOS Delay Locked Loop and Sub nanosecond Time to digital Converter Chip written by and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many high energy physics and nuclear science applications require sub-nanosecond time resolution measurements over many thousands of detector channels. Phase-locked loops have been employed in the past to obtain accurate time references for these measurements. An alternative solution, based on a delay-locked loop (DLL) is described. This solution allows for a very high level of integration yet still offers resolution in the sub-nanosecond regime. Two variations on this solution are outlined. A novel phase detector, based on the Muller C element, is used to implement a charge pump where the injected charge approaches zero as the loop approaches lock on the leading edge of an input clock reference. This greatly reduces timing jitter. In the second variation the loop locks to both the leading and trailing clock edges. In this second implementation, software coded layout generators are used to automatically layout a highly integrated, multi-channel, time to digital converter (TDC). Complex clock generation can be, achieved by taking symmetric taps off the delay elements. The two circuits, DLL and TDC, were implemented in a CMOS 1.2[mu]m and 0.8[mu]m technology, respectively. Test results show a timing jitter of less than 35 ps for the DLL circuit and better solution for the TDC circuit.

Book Harnessing VLSI System Design with EDA Tools

Download or read book Harnessing VLSI System Design with EDA Tools written by Rajanish K. Kamat and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-10-03 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the proliferation of VHDL, the reference material also grew in the same order. Today there is good amount of scholarly literature including many books describing various aspects of VHDL. However, an indepth review of these books reveals a different story. Many of them have emerged simply as an improved version of the manual. While some of them deal with the system design issues, they lack appropriate exemplifying to illustrate the concepts. Others give large number of examples, but lack the VLSI system design issues. In nutshell, the fact which gone unnoticed by most of the books, is the growth of the VLSI is not merely due to the language itself, but more due to the development of large number of third party tools useful from the FPGA or semicustom ASIC realization point of view. In the proposed book, the authors have synergized the VHDL programming with appropriate EDA tools so as to present a full proof system design to the readers. In this book along with the VHDL coding issues, the simulation and synthesis with the various toolsets enables the potential reader to visualize the final design. The VHDL design codes have been synthesized using different third party tools such as Xilinx Web pack Ver.11, Modelsim PE, Leonrado Spectrum and Synplify Pro. Mixed flow illustrated by using the above mentioned tools presents an insight to optimize the design with reference to the spatial, temporal and power metrics.

Book excerpt: This book endeavours to highlight the untapped potential of Smart Agriculture for the innovation and expansion of the agriculture sector. The sector shall make incremental progress as it learns from associations between data over time through Artificial Intelligence, deep learning and Internet of Things applications. The farming industry and Smart agriculture develop from the stringent limits imposed by a farm's location, which in turn has a series of related effects with respect to supply chain management, food availability, biodiversity, farmers' decision-making and insurance, and environmental concerns among others. All of the above-mentioned aspects will derive substantial benefits from the implementation of a data-driven approach under the condition that the systems, tools and techniques to be used have been designed to handle the volume and variety of the data to be gathered. Contributions to this book have been solicited with the goal of uncovering the possibilities of engaging agriculture with equipped and effective profound learning algorithms. Most agricultural research centres are already adopting Internet of Things for the monitoring of a wide range of farm services, and there are significant opportunities for agriculture administration through the effective implementation of Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Big Data and IoT structures.

Book Time to digital Converter for an All digital Phase locked Loop

Download or read book Time to digital Converter for an All digital Phase locked Loop written by Sanjeet Sawant and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A phase-locked loop (PLL) is a widely-used mixed-signal circuit that is used to create the precise clocks required on almost every integrated circuit. A PLL uses negative feedback to control an on-chip oscillator so that its frequency equals a multiple of a reference clock frequency provided from off-chip. The on-chip clock and the reference clock have a stable phase relationship. In recent years phase-locked loops have moved towards digital-intensive or all-digital designs due to advancements in CMOS technology which make these attractive in terms of area and power consumption. This project was to design and simulate a time-to-digital converter (TDC), which is a circuit used in an all-digital phase-locked loop. The TDC converts the phase difference between the on-chip clock and the reference clock into a digital code which is used to adjust the phase and frequency of the on-chip oscillator. Circuit schematics were designed for a time-to-digital converter in Cadence Virtuoso and simulated using the Spectre simulator in a 0.18um CMOS process. Simulations were performed to verify the performance across variations in process, supply voltage, and temperature.
