Inhaltsangabe

Written in a simple, easy to understand style, this book will teach PLL users how to use new clock technology in their work in order to create innovative applications.

• Investigates the clock frequency concept from a different perspective--at an application level
• Teaches engineers to use this new clocking technology to create innovations in chip/system level, through real examples extracted from commercial products

Von der hinteren Coverseite

This book addresses the importance of clock technology in the field of IC design and introduces a new perspective on the concept of clock frequency in an easy-to-understand fashion

From Frequency to Time-Average-Frequency: A Paradigm Shift in the Design of Electronic System introduces a paradigm shift into the field of microelectronic system design: from conventional Frequency to emerging Time-Average-Frequency (result: from the rigorous clock in the past to the flexible clock for the future). This book will demonstrate the approach of using a novel clock generator, Time-Average-Frequency based Direct Period Synthesis (TAF-DPS), as the enabler to create chip/system/architecture level innovations. The knowledge-and-skill gap between clock users and clock circuit designers is observed and addressed: it will help PLL designers expand their knowledge into various clock applications; design better clock circuit; and assist PLL users in understanding clock generator’s capability so that they can use it more efficiently in architecture level decision-making.

Key features of this book:

• Two long-lasting problems in the field of frequency synthesis are identified and addressed: arbitrary frequency generation and fast frequency switching.
• Two key terms are defined: rigorous clock of frequency; flexible clock of Time-Average-Frequency
• The clock frequency concept is investigated from the application perspective: theoretically and fundamentally

Clock technology is one of the four fundamental technologies in the field of IC design. It is the timekeeper and the driver of everything inside a silicon chip.
