This paper presents a new structure of Phase Locked Loop(PLL) which changes its loop bandwidth according to the locking status. The proposed PLL consists of a conventional PLL and, Locking Status Indicator(LSI). The LSI decides the operating bandwidth of loop filler. When the PLL becomes out of lock, the PLL increases the loop bandwidth and achieves fast locking. When the PLL becomes in-lock, this PLL decreases the loop bandwidth and minimizes phase noise output. The PLL can achieve fast locking and low phase noise output at the same time. Proposed PLL's locking time is less than $40{\mu}s$ and spur is 76.1dBc. It is simulated by HSPICE in a Hynix CMOS $0.35{\mu}m$ Process.

This paper proposes a new locking algorithm of the delay locked loop (DLL) which reduces the lock-acquisition time and eliminates false locking problem to enlarge the operating frequency range. The proposed DLL uses the modified phase frequency detector (MPFD) and the modified charge pump (MCP) to avoid the false locking problem. Adopting a new lock detector that measures delay between elects helps the fast lock-acquisition time greatly. The idea has been confirmed by HSPICE simulations in a 0.35-${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS process.

This paper presents the digital PLL architecture and design for improving the frequency detection range and locking time for wide-band frequency synthesizer applications. In this research, a wide-range digital logic quadricorrelator is used for wide-band and fast frequency detector and sigma-delta modulator with 2-bit up-down counter is adopted for DCO control. The proposed digital PLL reduces the phase noise from quantization effect and is suitable for implementation of wide-band fast-locking as well as low power features, which is in high demand for mobile multimedia applications.

A novel phase-locked loop(PLL) architecture with multiple charge pumps for fast locking has been proposed. The proposed PLL has three charge pumps. The effective capacitance and resistance of the loop filter can be scaled up/down according to the locking status by controlling the direction and magnitude of each charge pump current. The fast locking PLL that changes its loop bandwidth through controlling charge pumps depending on locking status has been designed. The capacitor usually occupying the larger portion of the chip is also minimized with the proposed scheme. Therefore, the PLL size of $990{\mu}m\;{\times}\;670{\mu}m$ including resistors and capacitors at the bandwidth of 29.9KHz has been achieved. It has been fabricated with 3.3V $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS process. The locking time is less than $6{\mu}s$ with the measured phase noise of -90.45dBc/Hz @1MHz at 851.2MHz output frequency.

This paper presents the analog adaptive phase-locked loop (PLL) architecture with a new adaptive bandwidth controller to reduce locking time and minimize jitter in PLL output for wireless communication. It adaptively controls the loop bandwidth according to the locking status. When the phase error is large, the PLL increases the loop bandwidth and reduces locking time. When the phase error is small, the PLL decreases the loop bandwidth and minimizes output jitters. The adaptive bandwidth control is implemented by controlling charge pump current depending on the locking status. A 1.28-GHz CMOS phase-locked loop with adaptive bandwidth control is designed with 0.35 $mu$m CMOS technology. It is simulated by HSPICE and achieves the primary reference sidebands at the output of the VCO are approximately -80dBc.

In this paper, we focus our attention on the improvement of locking time and jitter parameter and propose the new structure of PLL which combined with the FVC, FOVI Matcher(FVC-Output and VCO-input Matching Circuit), Control Circuit and the conventional charge pump PLL. Using fast operation characteristics of the FVC, the circuit matching FVC-Output and VCO-input (FOVI Matcher) made to synchronize very fast. Fast locking time is usually required for application where the PLL has to settle rapidly if they switch from an idle mode to a normal mode and to track high-frequency data bit rate in data recovery systems. After a fast acqusition is achieved by the using the FVC, the conventional PLL operates for removing the phase error between the reference signal and the feedback signal. Therefore this structure can improve the trade-off between acquisition behavior and locked behavior.

New locking algorithm of DLL is proposed to improve the locking speed and low power dissipation in this paper, In spite of using the architecture of delay controller, low power consumption is acquired by operating only one controller at once and fast locking speed is accomplished by initial setting from the coarse controller. The proposed DLL circuit is operated from 50MHz to 200MHz and locked within 6 cycle at all of operating frequency.

This paper introduces the design of low-power, fast-locking delay locked-loop using complementary pass transistor logic(CPL). Low-power design has become one of the most important in the modem VLSI application. CPL has the advantage of fast speed, high density, and low power with signal buffering between stages. Based on this analysis, we concluded that the I/O performance can be beyond 500㎒, 2-poly, 2-metal 0.65$\mu\textrm{m}$, 3.3V supply.

This paper describes the design of the Register Controlled DLL(Delay-Locked Loop) that achieves fast locking and low Power consumption using a new locking algorithm. A fashion for a fast locking speed is that controls the two controller in sequence. The up/down signal due to clock skew between a internal and a external clock in phase detector, first adjusts a large phase difference in coarse controller and then adjusts a small phase difference in fine controller. A way for a low power consumption is that only operates one controller at once. Moreover the proposed DLL shows better jitter performance Because using the lock indicator circuit. The proposed DLL circuit is operated from 50MHz to 200MHz by SPICE simulation. The estimated power dissipation is 15mA at 200MHz in 3.3V operation. The locking time is within 7 cycle at all of operating frequency.
