The invention provides an all-digital
delay-locked loop circuit and a calibration method, and relates to the technical field of integrated circuits. The all-digital
delay phase-locked loop circuit comprises a
frequency divider, a phase
discriminator, a calibration logic circuit and a
numerical control delay line, the input end of the
frequency divider receives a reference
clock signal, and the first output end of the
frequency divider is connected with the input end of the
numerical control delay line to provide a reference pulse
signal; a second output end of the frequency divider is connected with a first input end of the phase
discriminator and provides a
phase discrimination sampling pulse
signal; the second input end of the phase
discriminator is connected with the output end of the
numerical control delay line, and receives a delay pulse signal after the reference pulse signal is delayed by the numerical
control delay line; the output end of the phase discriminator is connected with the input end of the calibration logic circuit to provide a
phase discrimination result; the output end of the calibration logic circuit is connected with the control end of the numerical
control delay line, and the delay step length of the numerical
control delay line is calibrated according to the
phase discrimination result so as to calibrate the delay of the delay pulse signal. The phase discrimination error can be reduced, and the calibration precision can be improved.
