Abstract :
The DLL, in 0.35/spl mu/m CMOS, uses the shifted averaging VCDL to reduce the mismatch-induced timing error among the delay stages without extra hardware. The DLL can generate precise multiphase outputs with improved duty cycle, reduced skew errors, and lowered jitter. Compared with a conventional DLL, this design improves the peak-to-peak jitter by a factor of 1.4 at 150MHz.
