Abstract

We present a digital-to-time converter (DTC)-assisted fractional-N wide-bandwidth all-digital PLL (ADPLL). It employs a MASH ΔΣ time-to-digital converter (TDC) to achieve low in-band phase noise, and a wide-tuning range digitally-controlled oscillator (DCO). Fabricated in 40nm CMOS, the ADPLL consumes 10.7 mW while outputting 1.73 to 3.38 GHz (after a ÷2 division) and achieves better than −109 dBc/Hz in-band phase noise and 420fs rms integrated jitter.
