DIGITAL PHASE LOCKED LOOP
First Claim
1. A digital phase locked loop configured to receive a reference clock signal and a channel control word, and to generate an output clock signal, the digital phase locked loop comprising:
- an adjustable delay component configured to;
receive the reference clock signal,apply a time delay to the reference clock signal in accordance with a time delay control signal; and
provide a delayed reference clock signal;
a timing component configured to process the delayed reference clock signal and the output clock signal, and generate a first control signal representative of a phase of the output clock signal;
a reference accumulator configured to receive the channel command word and generate;
a second control signal representative of the phase of an intended output clock signal; and
the time delay control signal such that the delayed reference clock signal is delayed by a period of time representative of a first portion of the phase of the intended output clock signal;
a controller configured to process the first and second control signals, and generate a DCO control signal for setting a frequency of a digitally controlled oscillator in accordance with the first and second control signals; and
a digitally controlled oscillator configured to generate the output clock signal in accordance with the DCO control signal.

Abstract
A digital phase locked loop (300) configured to receive a reference clock signal (302) and a channel control word (308), and to generate an output clock signal (304). The digital phase locked loop comprising an adjustable delay component (306) configured to: receive the reference clock signal (302), apply a time delay to the reference clock signal (302) in accordance with a time delay control signal (316); and provide a delayed reference clock signal (318). The digital phase locked loop further comprising a timing component (320) configured to process the delayed reference clock signal (318) and the output clock signal (304), and generate a first control signal (322) representative of the phase of the output clock signal (304); a reference accumulator (310) configured to receive the channel command word (308) and generate: a second control signal (312) representative of the phase of an intended output clock signal; and the time delay control signal (316) such that the delayed reference clock signal (318) is delayed by a period of time representative of a first portion of the phase of the intended output clock signal. The digital phase locked loop also comprising a controller (314) configured to process the first and second control signals (322, 312), and generate a DCO control signal (326) for setting the frequency of a digitally controlled oscillator (328) in accordance with the first and second control signals (322, 312); and a digitally controlled oscillator (328) configured to generate the output clock signal (304) in accordance with the DCO control signal (326).
