摘要
A novel clock network composed of multiple synchronized phase-locked loops is analyzed, implemented, and tested, Undesirable large-signal stable (mode-locked) states dictate the transfer characteristic of the phase detectors; a matrix formulation of the linearized system allows direct calculation of system poles for any desired oscillator configuration. A 16-oscillator 1,3-GHz distributed clock network in 0.35-mum CMOS is presented here.
