Characterization of a digital phase locked loop and a stochastic time to digital converter

Creator:

Geissenhainer, Erik D.

Abstract:

A digital phase locked loop (DPLL) and a statistical time-to-digital converter (STDC) were previously fabricated in a 0.35Âµm, 3.3V SOI CMOS process. This work summarizes these designs and characterizes the measured performance. Simulations supplement the measurements where applicable. The DPLL was found to reach a locked state under a limited...

Inductors in high-performance silicon radio frequency integrated circuits : analysis, modeling, and design considerations

Creator:

Lutz, Richard D., Jr

Abstract:

Spiral inductors are a key component of mixed-signal and analog integrated circuits (IC's). Such circuits are often fabricated using silicon-based technology, owing to the inherent low-cost and high volume production aspects. However, semiconducting substrate materials such as silicon can have adverse effects on spiral inductor performance due to the lossy...
