Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a capacitive load element, in particular to a capacitive load element of a signal delay circuit. Background technique [0002] The phase-locked loop is one of the necessary modules of the transmission system, and its main function is to provide the frequency required for system operation. A general PLL includes a frequency phase detector (Frequency Phase Detector), a loop filter circuit (Loop Filter), an oscillator circuit (Oscillator), and a frequency divider (Frequency Divider). According to different circuit implementation methods, it can be divided into analog phase-locked loop and digital phase-locked loop. [0003] In an analog phase-locked loop (Analog PLL), a linear frequency-phase detection circuit compares the frequency error and phase error between the reference frequency and the frequency generated by the loop, and converts these errors into a voltage output. In order to stabilize the system and filter high-freque...

Problems solved by technology

However, the performance is limited to digitally controlled oscillator circuits and cannot be used in related high-speed transmission systems. As far as the current literature on digitally controlled oscillator circuits is concerned, the oscillation cycle is about tens of logic gates in transmission delay, which can produce the smallest time resolution. Around the propagation delay of 0.1 logic gate

In addition, the current digitally controlled oscillator circuit cannot provide multi-phase output. As far as the components provided by the 0.18 micron process are concerned, the frequency resolution is about several ps, and the frequency jitter generated is about hundreds of ps, so it can only be used in the output Low-speed transmission system with a speed of about several MHz to tens of MHz
