Abstract :
This paper describes the design of an ultra low power CMOS PLL clock synthesizer targeting wireless sensor applications that require low minimum power dissipation. Based on integer-N architecture, the PLL clock synthesizer produces a 100 kHz output signal from a reference input signal generated using an on-chip crystal oscillator operating at 32.768 kHz. Fabricated in a 0.6-mum N-well CMOS process technology, the PLL achieves a power consumption of 20 muW with a frequency accuracy of plusmn13 Hz.
