A digital delay line is a discrete element in digital filter theory, which allows a signal to be delayed by a number of samples. If the delay is an integer multiple of samples, digital delay lines are often implemented as circular buffers. This means that integer delays can be computed very efficiently. The delay by one sample is notated z⁻¹ and delays of N samples is notated as z⁻ᴺ motivated by the role the z-transform plays in describing digital filter structures.
Method and apparatus for determining digital delay line entry point
A method and apparatus to characterize a synchronous device after it is packaged. For synchronous devices, such as SDRAMs implementing a Delay Locked Loop (DLL) to synchronize one signal, such as an external clock signal with a second signal, such as a data signal, a counter is coupled to the phase detector of the DLL to track the entry point of the delay line. The entry point information can be taken over a variety of voltages, temperatures, and frequencies to characterize the DLL. The counter may be located on the synchronous device or external to the device.

Clock generator and clock generating method capable of varying clock frequency without increasing the number of delay elements
InactiveUS6049238AReduce frequencyDelay lines pulse generationPulse automatic controlPhase differenceDelayed time
A clock generator including a frequency multiplier, a phase lock circuit and a frequency divider. The frequency multiplier generates a frequency multiplied clock by multiplying the frequency of an input clock. The phase lock circuit detects a phase difference between the input clock and a frequency divided clock, and generates, by delaying the frequency multiplied clock by an amount corresponding to the phase difference, a phase-locked clock with its phase locked with the input clock. The frequency divider detects in every fixed cycle a particular pulse of the phase-locked clock, and generates the frequency divided clock by dividing the phase-locked clock with reference to the particular pulse of the phase-locked clock. In particular, the frequency divider detects the particular pulse immediately previous to a falling edge of the input clock. This can reduce the phase difference between the input clock and the phase-locked clock, and hence to solve a problem of a conventional clock generator in that a delay time of a digital delay line in a phase lock circuit must be lengthened with a reduction in the multiplication number of the frequency multiplied clock, which requires a greater number of delay elements because of a large occupying area of the delay elements and a decoder, thereby increasing the circuit scale and cost of a chip to reduce the multiplication number of the frequency multiplied clock.

A clock signal generator varies a frequency of a digital clock over a selected range of frequencies. The generator employs a divider for lowering a frequency of a clock signal. A counter increments synchronously with the signal, and causes a selected sequence of outputs to be generated by a pattern generator. The pattern generator output forms an input to a digitally controllable delay line which receives the lower frequency clock signal. The pattern generator causes the digital delay line to vary a frequency of the lowered frequency clock signal between selected boundaries. The varying frequency clock signal is then raised up again such that a final clock has a varying frequency, and will exhibit less EMI spiking during switching of an associated, synchronous digital data device. The solid state nature of the generator allows for simple fabrication, inexpensive manufacture and ready integration into digital circuitry, such as multifunction integrated circuits.

A testable digital delay line that uses XOR gates as delay elements is provided. The use of XOR gates enables independent control of each input to the multiplexer. With test inputs that enable each delay element, the multiplexer inputs can be assigned any value during test, thus giving the delay line very robust pattern fault coverage.

Selecting a different set of reference voltages programs a different current flowing in the current limiting inverters. This programmable current causes a programmable unit delay to be introduced by each XOR gate delay element.
