Book 25

This text presents a latest technology in frequency synthesis. The technology includes three key components: Time-Average-Frequency, Flying-Adder architecture, and Digital-to-Frequency converter. The coverage presents the case, through real application examples, that this Flying-Adder technology creates a new frontier for modern IC design. In so doing, it also discusses the weaknesses of current frequency synthesis techniques in dealing with certain problems in modern IC design. The result is a complete picture of this technology for professional design engineers, researchers, and advanced students.

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
