[0026] The following will describe in detail the specific implementation manners of the present utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] As Figure 1 shown, an ADC all-digital phase discriminator based on ZYNQ includes:
[0028] ZYNQ Core Module 1, the output end of the ZYNQ Core Module 1 is used to connect to an external interface, and the ZYNQ Core Module 1 is used for data processing;
[0029] ADC Sampling Module 2, the output end of the ADC Sampling Module 2 is connected to the input end of the ZYNQ Core Module 1, and the ADC Sampling Module 2 is used for sampling quadrature IQ frequency signals;
[0030] Rotary Frequency Discrimination and Phase Discrimination Module 3, the output end of the Rotary Frequency Discrimination and Phase Discrimination Module 3 is connected to the input end of the ADC Sampling Module 2, and the Rotary Frequency Discrimination and Phase Discrimination Module 3 is used for generating quadrature IQ frequency signals;
[0031] Frequency Source Module 4, the output end of the Frequency Source Module 4 is connected to the receiving end of the Rotary Frequency Discrimination and Phase Discrimination Module 3, the Frequency Source Module 4 is connected to the ZYNQ Core Module 1, and the Frequency Source Module 4 is used for generating a system clock and adjusting the local frequency phase;
[0032] Reference Input Module 5, the output end of the Reference Input Module 5 is connected to the receiving end of the Rotary Frequency Discrimination and Phase Discrimination Module 3, and the Reference Input Module 5 is used for receiving frequency signals.
[0033] As Figure 2 shown, in some embodiments, the ZYNQ Core Module 1 includes a ZYNQ chip 11, a reset chip 12, a FLASH chip 13, and an SDRAM chip 14, and the ZYNQ chip 11 is respectively connected to the reset chip 12, the FLASH chip 13, and the SDRAM chip 14.
[0034] As Figure 2 shown, the ADC Sampling Module 2 is used for sampling IQ frequency signals, obtaining the sine value and cosine value of the frequency, and the phase difference quadrant at any moment can be identified by calculating the signs of the outputs I and Q of the phase discriminator. If the phase error is in the first quadrant, then both phase discriminators output positive values. If the sine phase discriminator outputs a positive value and the cosine phase discriminator outputs a negative value, then the phase is in the second quadrant.
[0035] In some embodiments, the Reference Input Module 5 is provided with a signal receiving end and a signal output end. The signal receiving end is used for receiving 1 MHz, 5 MHz, and 10 MHz reference signals, the signal output end is used for outputting 1 MHz, 5 MHz, and 10 MHz reference signals, and the signal output end is connected to the receiving end of the Rotary Frequency Discrimination and Phase Discrimination Module 3.
[0036] In some embodiments, a control interface is provided on the frequency source module 4, and the control interface is connected to the ZYNQ core module 1. The control interface is used to receive the feedback signal provided by the ZYNQ core module 1, and the frequency source module 4 is used to generate a reference frequency 10 MHz signal.
[0037] Among them, the rotary phase discriminator module 3 is used for phase discrimination and frequency measurement, the ADC sampling module 2 is used for digitizing the amplitude-frequency function, and the phase and frequency calculations are completed using the computing power of the ZYNQ core module 1. The frequency source module is used to receive the feedback signal provided by the ZYNQ core module to adjust its own frequency and phase, so as to generate a reference frequency 10 MHz signal with low phase noise and high precision.
[0038] As Figure 3 shown, the core working principle of a ZYNQ-based ADC all-digital phase discriminator of the present invention is as follows:
[0039] The rotary phase discriminator module 3 receives 10 MHz, 5 MHz, 1 MHz from the reference input module 5, and its amplitude-frequency function is expressed as Sin(ω i t+φ d t). It receives 10 MHz from the frequency source module 4 to generate a path of in-phase and a path of 90° quadrature IQ frequency signals 2Sin(ω o t) and 2Cos(ω o t), which are mixed with the input from the reference input module 5. After mixing, the two signals are respectively expressed by the amplitude-frequency functions as Sin[(ω i -ω o )t-φ d t] and Cos[(ω i -ω o )t-φ d t]. According to the description of the amplitude-frequency function, it can be known that this signal provides sufficient phase information and frequency information, and the phase difference between the reference and local frequencies can be obtained using the inverse trigonometric function. Figure 3 In the figure, LPF represents a low-pass filter, and VOC represents a voltage-controlled oscillator. The rotary phase discriminator module 3 multiplies the input signal and the signal generated by the VCO and filters them to extract the information related to the frequency and phase of the input signal. These information can be used to adjust the VCO so that its output signal is synchronized with the frequency and phase of the input signal, thereby achieving the purpose of phase locking.
[0040] In some embodiments, the ZYNQ chip 11 uses a domestic programmable fusion chip based on the TSMC 28nm HPC+ process, integrating a processing system (PS) of a quad-core high-performance processor and 350K programmable logic (PL) with 429 million gate circuits. The quad-core high-performance processor is the core of the processor system, which works in cooperation with on-chip memory, external memory interface DDR, various system function components, I / O peripherals, and the programmable logic part, etc., to jointly form a rich-function on-chip programmable system.
[0041] In some embodiments, the ADC sampling module 2 uses a JAD9268-100 chip. The dual ADC cores adopt a multi-stage differential pipelined architecture and integrate an output error correction logic. Each ADC has a wide bandwidth, a differential sample-and-hold analog input amplifier, and supports various user-selectable input ranges. The integrated voltage reference simplifies the design considerations. A duty cycle stabilizer is provided to compensate for the variation of the ADC clock duty cycle, enabling the converter to maintain excellent performance.
[0042] In some embodiments, the rotation frequency discriminator and phase discriminator module 3 uses a TC4-1T+ transformer and ADG1419 and MAX4635EUB switches to achieve I / Q quadrature transformation.
[0043] In some embodiments, the frequency source module 4 uses a DACSGM5349 frequency source module to convert the digital feedback control signal into an analog voltage-controlled signal. After being buffered by the amplifier SGM8061, the analog voltage-controlled signal is given to the crystal oscillator to adjust the frequency. The SGM431 voltage reference chip powers the chips related to the analog voltage-controlled signal of the frequency source module.
[0044] In some embodiments, the reference input module 5 includes a power divider, a Schmitt trigger, and a power attenuation circuit. The signal input enters the power divider after passing through the power attenuation circuit. The STCP210+ power divider provides one path to the rotation frequency discriminator and phase discriminator module, and the other path passes through the 74ALVC1G17 Schmitt trigger to detect the presence or absence of the signal.
[0045] An all-digital phase detector for ADC based on ZYNQ proposed by the utility model solves the disadvantages of the existing digital phase detector, such as dead zone, complex circuit structure, large number of required transistors, large delay of multi-input logic gates, low operating frequency of the circuit, and high high-frequency dynamic power consumption.

An all-digital phase detector for ADC based on ZYNQ of the utility model has the advantages of high precision, high integration, low power consumption, and low cost.
[0046] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the technical principle of the utility model, several improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the utility model.
