Adaptive Wavetable Oscillators

An adaptive oscillator is a system that can lock on to a time-varying input signal, synchronizing its output to both the frequency and phase of the input. A wavetable oscillator generates a periodic output by indexing into a lookup table that stores a single period of the waveform. An adaptive wavetable oscillator (AWO) combines these two ideas in a technique which separates the periodic output waveform from the parameters that control the adaptation of the frequency and phase of the waveform. This separation is advantageous because it decouples the state of the oscillator from the dynamics of the adaptation, allowing the process of synchronization to be interpreted as a simple gradient optimization on a cost function. The oscillations remain stable over a large and easily described range of parameter values, and analysis of the synchronization can proceed along lines familiar from standard adaptive systems. Key issues in the design of AWOs are: the class of admissible inputs, the shape of the wavetable, the parameters that will be controlled, and the adaptive algorithm that adjusts the parameters. This paper examines these issues through analysis and simulation, focusing on conditions that achieve the desired synchronization between output and input.

Simulating oscillators using SPICE

SPICE generation of the output signals from electronic oscillator circuits is obtained by transient analysis. Simulation success is software specific and depends upon how the transient analysis function is configured. Different tricks, which are oscillator configuration specific, may be applied to achieve simulation output. In the final analysis, one must remember that simulation is not a complete and full replacement for circuit construction and testing. Accurate analysis is given for resonant or relaxation circuits

Design of a wide-band frequency synthesizer based on TDC and DVC techniques

A wide-band frequency synthesizer based on time-to-digital (TDC) and digital-to-voltage (DVC) conversion techniques is proposed here. The proposed frequency synthesizer has the capabilities of jitter reduction and large bandwidth, making it more robust for high-frequency applications. A test chip is designed and fabricated in 0.6-/spl mu/m CMOS single-poly triple-metal process. Here, the novel DVC circuit is realized by tristate inverters, where the resolution can achieve 0.2 mV. Control stability of jitter can improve about 24 dB by exploiting the TDC-based controller. In order to achieve high output frequency and large output range, an analog voltage-controlled oscillator is designed to provide a locked range from 900 to 1900 MHz with <22 kHz resolution at 3.3 V. Simulation and test results show that the proposal can work as expected. Moreover, the TDC-based controller can be treated as soft IP to speed up turnaround time.     

A 30-GHz Self-Injection-Locked Oscillator Having a Long Optical Delay Line for Phase-Noise Reduction

We demonstrate a millimeter-wave self-injection-locked (SIL) oscillator having a long optical delay line as a feedback route. In the SIL oscillator, a part of output signal is self-injected into the oscillator after passing through a long optical delay line, resulting in locked oscillation and phase-noise reduction. By controlling the self-injection power, we achieve 30-GHz oscillation with a sidemode suppression ratio larger than 50 dB and about 18-dB phase-noise reduction at 10-kHz frequency offset.
