Clock alignment circuits and techniques for reducing power dissipation, increasing power supply noise immunity, decreasing process and temperature variation sensitivity, and providing a wide operating range. A power supply generator generates an isolated supply voltage for a delay line used in a clock alignment circuit. The delay line generates a delayed clock from a reference clock. A comparator detects a correction information (i.e., delay or phase error) between the delayed clock and the reference clock and generates error information representative of the correction information. A charge pump circuit converts the error information into a voltage signal, wherein the voltage signal is a scaled representation of the error information. The power supply generator includes an amplifier having a first input coupled to the voltage signal and an output to provide the supply voltage and a capacitor coupled between the supply voltage and a ground voltage, wherein the amplifier tracks the voltage signal level to regulate the supply voltage.

A ripple-mode controller provides reliable operation in multi-phase power supply circuits, over a variety of operating conditions. Cross-phase blanking allows the controller to preserve the desired phase relationship between the switching pulses its provides to the different output phases, and permits the controller to operate each output phase at nearly 100% duty cycles. Active current sharing compliments blanking operations by adjusting the width of switching pulses the controller provides to one or more of the output phases based on detecting load current imbalances between the different output phases. With active current sharing, the controller prevents one or more output phases from carrying excessive portions of the load current. Further complimenting its operation, the controller may include virtual ripple generation to increase the noise immunity of its ripple-mode regulation.

Generally, the present invention determines and uses spectral peak information, which preferably augments feature vectors and creates augmented feature vectors. The augmented feature vectors decrease errors in pattern recognition, increase noise immunity for wide-band noise, and reduce reliance on noisy formant features. Illustratively, one way of determining spectral peak information is to split pattern data into a number of frequency ranges and determine spectral peak information for each of the frequency ranges. This allows single peak selection. All of the spectral peak information is then used to augment a feature vector. Another way of determining spectral peak information is to use an adaptive Infinite Impulse Response filter to provide this information. Additionally, the present invention can determine and use incremental information. The incremental information is relatively easy to calculate and helps to determine if additional or changed features are worthwhile. The incremental information is preferably determined by determining a difference between mutual information (between the feature vector and the classes to be disambiguated) for new or changed feature vectors and mutual information for old feature vectors.

A clocked cascadable power regulator including synchronization logic and PWM control logic. The synchronization logic receives a clock signal and asserts a digital output signal synchronized with the clock signal in response to assertion of a digital input signal. The PWM control logic controls a PWM cycle in response to the digital input signal and in response to an output control condition. The regulator may be used alone or cascaded with other similar regulators for implementing a multiphase power converter with multiple channels. The clocked cascadable regulator uses digital signals to communicate between channels. Digital signals are not prone to the same kind of signal degradation or noise susceptibility as analog signals. In the cascaded configuration, there is one clock common to all channels which ensures that the phase separation between the channels is symmetrical to within the jitter tolerance of the common clock.
