Clock data recovery loop with separate proportional path

A clock data recovery loop that can be used over a wide range of data rates and maintain second-order behavior includes a nonlinear (e.g., Bang-Bang) phase detector, a charge pump, an RC loop filter, and signal generator (e.g., a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO)). At low data rates, the loop may be operated with the charge pump and loop filter with stable second-order behavior, with the resistor R of the loop filter serving as a proportional path. A separate proportional path is also provided that provides phase detector output directly to a control input of the VCO, while the resistor R of the loop filter is also bypassed. As increasing data rates give rise to third-order effects, the separate proportional path may be activated to maintain second-order behavior.

Method and apparatus for jitter reduction

A low bandwidth phase lock loop (PLL) arranged in a dual-loop configuration is disclosed. The first loop is a standard loop configuration using a crystal oscillator as a reference clock. The loop parameters for this first PLL can be optimized to work over a wide range of output frequencies, and with a minimum amount of jitter. The first loop outputs a reference signal, which is a VCO output. The second loop comprises a bang-bang detector configured to drive a digital loop filter, which then drives a phase interpolator. The phase interpolator manipulates the output phase. Since phase and frequency are related, where frequency is the derivative of phase, small frequency offsets can be made using a phase control signal, generated within the second loop based on the relation between the reference signal and the clock input signal. The second loop sets the jitter transfer bandwidth of the system.

Small caliber guided projectile

A non-spinning projectile that is self-guided to a laser designated target and is configured to be fired from a small caliber smooth bore gun barrel has an optical sensor mounted in the nose of the projectile, a counterbalancing mass portion near the fore end of the projectile and a hollow tapered body mounted aft of the counterbalancing mass. Stabilizing strakes are mounted to and extend outward from the tapered body with control fins located at the aft end of the strakes. Guidance and control electronics and electromagnetic actuators for operating the control fins are located within the tapered body section. Output from the optical sensor is processed by the guidance and control electronics to produce command signals for the electromagnetic actuators. A guidance control algorithm incorporating non-proportional, “bang-bang” control is used to steer the projectile to the target.

Controlling a voltage controlled oscillator in a bang-bang phase locked loop

The frequency changes in a bang-bang PLL that are generated using a digital phase detector's up / down signal are initially set to produce a faster pull-in rate and then reduced to produce a slower pull-in rate. The faster pull-in involves relatively large frequency changes and the slower pull-in rate involves smaller frequency changes. The changes in frequency of a bang-bang PLL can be implemented using a step size controller that includes timing control logic and step size logic. The function of the timing control logic is to control the timing of step size changes. The function of the step size logic is to set the step size of the frequency changes that are made by the VCO in response to the pd_up / down signal that is delivered directly to the VCO from the digital phase detector.

A method and apparatus for improving the timing of a seek operation through the removal of the coast phase of conventional model reference waveform type control systems are provided. With the apparatus and method, the coast phase is removed such that an acceleration phase is immediately followed by a deceleration phase in the waveform of the control system. A (1-Cos) / 2 shaping is applied to the resulting square waveform so that the affects of high frequency harmonics are minimized. The resulting “cosine bang-bang” waveform provides a reduction in seek time when compared to conventional model reference waveform based control. In addition to the above, the present invention provides a controller architecture in which the cosine bang-bang waveform may be applied to a voice coil motor to control the actuation of the read / write heads of a disc drive. With this controller architecture, the low-pass filters required in a model reference waveform approach are eliminated in favor of (1-Cos) / 2 shaping of the square waveform of the present invention. As a result, the increased time requirement due to low pass filtering is eliminated in the controller of the present invention.
