Class D amplifiers are becoming the most feasible solution for embedded audio application. However, distortions due to the non-linear nature of switching stage are the main drawback for this amplifier topology. This paper discusses the design and implementation of high fidelity audio class D using sliding mode control scheme. This design method proves to be a cost effective solution for industrial...
A new low-jitter polyphase-filter-based frequency multiplier incorporating a phase error calibration circuit to reduce the phase errors is presented. Designing with a multiplication ratio of eight, it has been fabricated in a 0.13-mum CMOS process. For input frequency of 25 MHz, the measured jitter is 2.46 ps (rms) and plusmn9.33 ps (pk-pk) at 200-MHz output frequency, while achievable maximum static...
Sublinear signal propagation delay in VLSI circuits carries a far greater penalty in wire area than is commonly realized. Therefore, the global complexity of VLSI circuits is more layout dependent than previously thought. This effect will be truly pronounced in the emerging wafer scale integration technology. We establish lower bounds on the trade-off between sublinear signalling speed and layout...
It is generally recognized that asynchronous operation of logic networks offers specific advantages over synchronous operation controlled by a central clock when the network is subject to large or widely varying inter-module propagation delays. In this paper we characterize several previously described techniques for achieving asynchronous operation by a single model. Essential to the model is the...
The notion of asynchronous switching circuit is roughly understood to be a logical circuit, possibly sequential, in which no special synchronizing signals or "clock" are required for proper circuit operation. Many different formulations of this notion appear in the literature, using sequential machine models and networks of logical element models. The following list of references indicates...
