Embodiment Construction

[0021] figure 1 Shown is a delay circuit structure. It adjusts the RC constants of the output nodes ON and OP through voltage-controlled variable capacitors to achieve variable delay, and reduces the delay circuit through resistive components connected to the drains of inverter 810 and inverter 820 Sensitivity to temperature and supply voltage. However, the introduction of this resistive component leads to a deterioration of the phase noise of the oscillator. In the delay circuit, the adjustment unit that converts the input control voltage into a current is difficult to achieve a small phase noise when covering the required frequency range.

[0022] figure 2 A schematic structural diagram of a delay circuit in an embodiment of the present invention is shown. like figure 2 As shown, the delay circuit may include: an amplification unit 101 , an adjustment unit 102 and a load unit 103 . The amplification unit 101 is coupled to the input terminal IN and the output terminal...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electronic circuits, in particular to a delay circuit and a voltage-controlled oscillator. Background technique [0002] Phase-locked loop (Phase-Locked Loop, PLL) is the core circuit in various communication and clock chips, and the spectral noise, jitter, spurious and other indicators of its output signal will directly affect the system performance. The voltage controlled oscillator is an important part in the PLL. When the control voltage changes within a certain range, a signal output within a continuous frequency range can be obtained. The ring oscillator is one of the main implementation methods, which generates an oscillating voltage signal by connecting the delay circuits end to end to form a feedback loop. Ring oscillators include both single-ended and differential circuit structures. [0003] In the delay circuit of the existing ring oscillator design, the adjustment unit part that converts t...
