Abstract :
A CMOS delay-locked loop based frequency multiplier is presented. The multiplication factor N/2 can be chosen according to the number of the delay cell and the cascade stage of the multiplier sub-circuit. The output frequency range is from 270 MHz to 2.4 GHz using tsmc 0.18 μm CMOS process parameters. The power consumption is 4 mW with a 1.8 V supply. The locking time of the DLL core is 1.78 μm at 270 MHz and 0.77 μs at 400 MHz. The phase errors are 43.44 ps at 270 MHz and 19.55 ps at 400 MHz. The cycle-to-cycle jitter of the DLL core is 8.29 ps.
