AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing technologies suffer from high power consumption, large latency, and poor real-time performance in frequency detection, making it difficult to meet the requirements of high-speed, wide-bandwidth, and low-power front-end real-time frequency detection.

Method used

An analog-domain asynchronous frequency detection circuit is adopted. The zero-crossing event of the input signal is detected by a zero-crossing comparator, and the time interval between adjacent zero-crossing events is measured by a time-to-digital converter to achieve frequency detection. The circuit structure is simplified, and dual TDCs are used to work alternately to avoid detection gaps.

Benefits of technology

It achieves low latency, high real-time performance, and low power consumption frequency detection, making it suitable for systems with stringent requirements for response speed and energy efficiency, and applicable to scenarios such as radar, communication, and electronic reconnaissance.
