9 results about "Electronic oscillator" patented technology

An electronic oscillator is an electronic circuit that produces a periodic, oscillating electronic signal, often a sine wave or a square wave. Oscillators convert direct current (DC) from a power supply to an alternating current (AC) signal. They are widely used in many electronic devices ranging from simplest clock generators to digital instruments (like calculators) and complex computers and peripherals etc. Common examples of signals generated by oscillators include signals broadcast by radio and television transmitters, clock signals that regulate computers and quartz clocks, and the sounds produced by electronic beepers and video games.

Injection-locked oscillator

An electronic oscillator circuit comprising: a tank circuit comprising an inductor and a capacitor, wherein the inductor and the capacitor each have a first terminal connected to a first side of the tank circuit and a second terminal connected to a second side of the tank circuit; a first current controller; and a second current controller; wherein the first current controller is connected to the first side of the tank circuit; wherein the second current controller is connected to the second side of the tank circuit; wherein the first current controller is arranged such that it can act as a current source for the tank circuit; wherein the second current controller is arranged such that it can act as a current sink for the tank circuit; wherein the first current controller and the second current controller are configured such that when the first current controller and the second current controller are in a first state, an injected current flows from the first current controller to the second current controller through the tank circuit; and when the first current controller and the second current controller are in a second state, no current is injected into the tank circuit. The injection of current in this way allows energy to be injected to the tank circuit, which forces oscillations in the tank circuit at a predetermined frequency different to the natural resonant frequency of the tank circuit.

Voltage droop detection and frequency recovery

A single droop detector and an asynchronous frequency recovery circuit may be used to slow down a frequency asynchronously when a voltage droop is detected and exit the droop event synchronously by gradually changing an electronic oscillator buffer capacitance until the frequency has been fully restored. This combination of a single droop detector and an asynchronous frequency recovery circuit may provide reduced detection and response latency. This solution may also provide improved performance in the presence of multiple voltage droop events that occur before a frequency has been fully restored from the previous droop. This solution also reduces or eliminates frequency overshoots and secondary voltage droops.

High linearity microwave photonic down-conversion receiver system based on opto-electronic oscillator

The present application relates to the field of microwave photonics, and more particularly to a high linearity microwave photonics down-conversion receiving system based on an optoelectronic oscillator. The system comprises a laser, a first phase modulator, a first optical amplifier, a phase-shifted Bragg grating, a first photodetector, a second phase modulator, an optical filter, a second optical amplifier, and a second photodetector. The frequency of the local oscillator signal generated by the first photodetector can be tuned by changing the frequency of the laser, thereby effectively realizing the tuning of the down-converted signal output by the second photodetector. By adjusting the gain value of the first optical amplifier, the amplitude of the local oscillator spectral harmonic in the output optical signal of the first phase modulator is a specific value, thereby realizing the suppression of the third-order intermodulation distortion in the output signal, and further improving the spurious-free dynamic range of the entire down-conversion receiving system. The system has reconfigurability and high linearity, and can play a technical value in the field of radar and communication applications.

In absence of electrical approaches for realization of highly stable RF oscillator, opto-electronic oscillators (OEO) techniques are provided, where self-forced oscillation techniques using long optical delays demonstrate significant short-term and long-term frequency stability. Fully integrated opto-electronic oscillator chip (IOEC) may be the most efficient realization of an RF frequency synthesizer in terms of operation frequency (covering microwave and millimeter wave), size (<10 cm3), ruggedness to environmental effects of temperature (−40 to 80 C), vibration (up to 40 g), low timing jitter (<5 fs for 40 GHz carrier), and wall-plug efficiency (output power >10 dBm from under 1 W power). A free-running III-V (primarily InP) based multi-mode laser (MML) diodes is designed with large mode number (e.g., over 60 modes) and intermodal oscillation frequency compatible with desired RF carrier signal (e.g., 1-40 GHz).
