PLL Architecture
3
Introduction of the PLL
  • PLL is one of the most key components in the Link
    Of Chip(LOC).The PLL will affect the whole system
    performance. So there exists some standard
    requirements such as OC-48,OC-192.
  • Function PLL and MUX converse the parallel data
    into series data and drive the Amp to transmit
    the series data in the transmitter terminal .

Purpose of First Version PLL
  • Verification of the PLL basic functionality.
  • Mainly testing the basic PLL parameters such
    as the lock time, jitter performance.
  • Compare the performance before and after the
    radiation.
  • PLL performance mainly jitter, lock range,
    locking time and stability etc.

25
VCO and Self_Biasing Generator Circuit Design
  • Self_Biasing Technique Advantage
  • Remove the process technology and environmental
    variability that plagues the PLL design.
  • Minimized the supply and substrate noise induced
    jitter.
  • The ideal of self_biasing is that it allows
    circuits to choose the operation biasing voltage
    in which they function very well.

    typical value and two for extreme control
    voltages.

Simulation result of Start Up Circuit
VTH0.345443V
  • When in the Initial state, the VCN is in the low
    state, i.e0 state and the output is in the high
    state, i.e., nearly VDD and it turns on the
    transistor. When the VCO and self biasing circuit
    works very well and the VCN is in the high state,
    i.e., minimum at least above 0.6V and the output
    of the Startup circuit is in the low state, i.e.,
    the output is nearly close to the gnd. So it will
    automatically stop when VCO works.

34
Differential VCO Update
  • After post_simulation, The VCO center frequency
    reduced to the 1.8GHz.
  • So we re_design the VCO which can work at higher
    frequency,such as 5GHz.
