This paper describes a delay-locked loop (DLL) circuit having two advancements, a dual-loop operation for a wide lock range and programmable replica delays using antifuse circuitry and internal voltage generator for a post-package skew calibration. The dual-loop operation uses information from the initial time difference between reference clock and internal clock to select one of the differential internal loops. This increases the lock range of the DLL to the lower frequency. In addition, incorporation of the programmable replica delay using antifuse circuitry and the internal voltage generator allows for the elimination of skews between external clock and internal clock that occur from on-chip and off-chip variations after the package process. The proposed DLL, fabricated on 0.16-/spl mu/m DRAM process, operates over the wide range of 42-400 MHz with 2.3-V power supply. The measured results show 43-ps peak-to-peak jitter and 4.71-ps rms jitter consuming 52 mW at 400 MHz.
