ABSTRACT:
Improvement of quantization errors that arise in a delay line with finite resolution. A direct digital synthesizer (DDS), which contains a numerically controlled oscillator (NCO) and a digital-to-phase converter (DPC), is placed in the feedback loop of a phase locked loop (PLL). The DDS is used as a fractional divider of the voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) frequency, such that the reference frequency of the DDS is made variable. Alignment of the edges provided by the DDS delay line may then be adjusted. Mismatch errors in the DDS delay line are reduced by utilizing independently tunable delay elements.
