  1. A Low Spur Fractional-N Frequency Synthesizer Architecture Circuits and Systems, 2005. ISCAS 2005. IEEE International Symposium on23-26 May 2005 Page(s):2807 - 2810 Vol. 3 指導教授 : 林志明 教授 學生 : 黃世一

  2. Outline • Abstract • Introduction • Fractional spurs • Blocking of the fractional spurs • Simulation results • Conclusions • References

  3. Abstract • New architecture of a fractional-N PLL frequency synthesizer • Loop filter with a discrete time comb filter • Loop filter architecture can be efficiently implemented using switched capacitor techniques

  4. Introduction 1 • Fractional-N PLL, Better phase noise performance, faster lock and better spur levels • Advantages: larger loop bandwidth, better VCO phase noise suppression, faster lock time and higher PFD update frequencies • Fractional spurs and cycle slipping

  5. Introduction 2 • Delta-sigma control in the feedback divider • Fractional spurs by the delta-sigma modulator to high frequencies. • Delta-sigma modulator can generate spurs • Pseudorandom sequences

  6. Introduction 3 • Another way to suppress fractional spurs is to reduce the bandwidth of the PLL • Degradation of the noise performance, lock time and jitter

  7. Introduction 3 • Extension of the conventional fractional-N technique • A discrete-time loop filter with notches at spur frequencies • A low power frequency synthesizer design with low spur levels

  8. Fractional spurs • Fractional-N frequency synthesizers generate spurs at the output of VCO

  9. ωs= 2πfs • fs - frequency of a spur • Vi - amplitude of the i-th harmonic • ϕi - phase of the i-th harmonic

  10. ω0 = 2πf0 • f0 - frequency of the free running oscillator • VA- amplitude of oscillation • Φ(t) - phase of the oscillator

  11. ωc= 2πfc= 2π(f0 + KVCOV0)

  12. Each harmonic at the control line of a VCO will generate an infinite number of spurs at multiple frequencies around the carrier frequency of the VCO • The magnitude of a spur depends on the Bessel functions and depends on the KVCO

  13. Blocking of the fractional spurs

  14. Simulation results

  15. VCO output spectrum of the conventional PLL (zoomed) VCO output spectrum of the PLL with DTF (zoomed).

  16. Conclusion • Fractional-N frequency synthesizers with low fractional spurs • Discrete-time comb filter, switched capacitor techniques • Simulation results
