A difference detector PFD for low jitter PLL

[[abstract]]For high speed and low jitter PLL application, a new phase frequency detector (PFD) with difference detector is proposed. Because the proposed difference detector PFD (dd-PFD) doesn't have any feedback path in phase frequency detector circuit, it can be operated up to 1.6 GHz. Furthermore, with difference detector, the dd-PFD has three states, so it will not have phase errors and jitter problems. The dead zone of dd-PFD is 16 ps. The proposed PFD is designed using 0.35 μm CMOS technology at 3.3 V power supply.[[conferencetype]]國際[[conferencedate]]20010902~20010905[[booktype]]紙本[[conferencelocation]]Malt
