DLL phase detection using advanced phase equal

ActiveUS20050262373A1Faster DLL locking timeFast locking timePulse automatic controlError detection/correctionPhase detectorDelay-locked loop
A system and method are disclosed to generate and terminate clock shift modes during initialization of a synchronous circuit (e.g., a delay-locked loop or DLL). Upon initialization, the DLL is entered into a ForceSL (Force Shift Left) mode and an On1x mode (i.e., left shifting on each clock cycle). The feedback clock that tracks the phase of the reference clock (which, in turn, is derived from the system clock) is initially delayed in a coarse phase detector prior to applying it to the coarse phase detection window. Two delayed versions of the feedback clock are sampled by the reference clock to generate a pair of phase information signals, which are then used to establish an advanced phase equal (APHEQ) signal. The APHEQ signal advances onset of the PHEQ (phase equalization) phase and is used to terminate the ForceSL and On1x modes, thereby preventing wrong ForceSL exit due to clock jitter or feedback path overshooting during On1x exit. The avoidance of wrong ForceSL exit and On1x overshooting problems further results in faster DLL locking time.

Communication system and timing control method

A communication system and a timing control method are proposed that optimize timing in a sender and thereby enable information to be stably transmitted at the right timing. Under instructions from a timing controller in a receiver, the timing of driving a phase modulator in a sender is shifted by one step after another, and the then amount of clock shift and result of interference are monitored at the receiver and stored in a memory. The optimum timing is determined based on the stored data. Thus, a clock for driving the phase modulator in the sender can be set at the right timing. This is equivalent to compensating for group velocity dispersion due to wavelength dispersion that occurs when an optical signal channel and a clock signal channel are transmitted by wavelength division multiplexing transmission.

Method and device for realizing wireless sensing network node positioning

The invention discloses a method and a device for realizing wireless sensing network node positioning. According to the invention, high-precision ranging can be realized only through three-time one-way communication in the ranging step, so that communication process is saved and ranging expense is reduced compared with a current ranging agreement; moreover, high-precision time synchronization is not required, so that the node cost is reduced. The influence of clock shift between two nodes on the ranging precision is more considered, and the ranging precision is improved as the time shift problem during the ranging calculation process is solved. In addition, compared with a common method for obtaining an average result through repeated measurement, a more precise ranging result is obtained by allowing the obtained ranging results between a goal node and an anchor node to be subjected to weighting process by utilizing a minimum optimization principle. Moreover, sensor reading can be adopted to estimate the goal node coordinates so as to correct the goal node coordinates obtained by utilizing the ranging results, and as a result, the node positioning accuracy is further improved.

Sinusoid synthesis

An approximate sinusoid is synthesised by subtracting the error between a periodic signal, for example a triangle wave, and a true sinusoid. The periodic signal is produced using a counter circuit, while the error signal is generated using a shift register circuit, both circuits being clocked by a common clock signal. An improved approximation to the sine wave may be achieved by further generating an error signal approximating to the error between the first generated approximate sine wave and a true sine wave, approximate error signal being generated in the same fashion using a counter circuit and shift register clocked from a common clock signal, the second error signal being combined with approximate sine wave to produce an improved sine wave.

A fault-tolerant computer has duplex systems each comprising a CPU subsystem for controlling access to a CPU and a storage unit, and an IO subsystem for controlling data which are input to the IO subsystem from an external circuit and output from the IO subsystem to the external circuit. Data with a transmission time assigned thereto is transmitted from one of the IO subsystems to the other IO subsystem, and is received asynchronously by the other IO subsystem. The other IO subsystem records a reception time of the data, and calculates an ideal reception time using the transmission time assigned to the data. A clock shift in the other IO subsystem with respect to the one IO subsystem is calculated from the calculated ideal reception time and the recorded reception time. Thereafter, the counter in the other IO subsystem is changed based on the calculated clock shift, and data is received using the changed counter.

Testing for bridge faults in the interconnect of programmable integrated circuits

Apparatus and methods of testing for bridge faults in nets of the interconnect of a programmable integrated circuit. Each net is sourced by a function generator (e.g., a look up table) configured as a clocked shift register. For each net group, shift registers connecting nets in the group are initialized identically to one value and are initialized to a different unique value from shift registers connecting nets of other net groups. Each shift register stores one bit with a value one and zeros in all other bits. When the shift register is clocked, it provides a single one on one clock cycle and provides zeros in all other clock cycles. At the end of n clock cycles, where n is the length of the shift register, if the load on any net has a value that is different from the value provided by the net's corresponding shift register, a short is detected.
