第四章正反器架构之探讨-云林科技大学.docVIP

中文摘要 iPad電腦)，手機也從傳統笨重的黑金剛變成方便攜帶的觸控智慧型手機(例如：HTC、IPHONE)，不難發現，現在科技的發展趨勢主要以設計出多功能且輕、薄、短、小的電子產品為主，然而目前的科技產品常使用電池作為供應電源，一般電路中的功率消耗主要以切換功率為主，因此若能減少電路中的消耗功率，便能有效地降低電池所耗費的能量，如此一來，不僅可以延長電池的使用壽命，並且能夠成功地減少電池的汰換率。 在講求電腦與手機傳送速度的年代裡，目前手機內CPU的工作速度已經發展至Gega赫茲(GHz)，甚至更高頻率，其內部極關鍵的電路為頻率合成器，藉由頻率合成器(Frequency Synthesizer)實現相位鎖定與達到所預期的輸出頻率，主要由相位比較器(Phase Detector)、低通帶濾波器(LPF)、電壓控制震盪器(VCO)與預除器(Prescaler)所組成，其中預除器對於各種通訊系統而言，更是不可或缺的電路區塊，但是預除器因為工作在整個電路的最高頻段，因此占整體電路很大的消耗功率，換言之，若能降低預除器的消耗功率，整體電路的功率消耗也能隨之降低。 本專題預除器設計以低功率消耗的電路效能為主要研究方向，並針對傳統同步觸發除4/5預除器進行優缺點的深入探討，進而提出非同步觸發除4/5預除器，改善傳統同步觸發架構的正反器所造成多餘的功率消耗(Power Consumption)，有效地降低整體電路的功率消耗，也避免傳統同步觸發除4/5預除器因為同步觸發架構可能會造成電路誤動作的情況。 英文摘要echnology trends to design versatile, light, thin, short, and small electronic products. However, these products often use the battery as a power supply. As you know, when the circuit switches the state, it consumes the most power consumption. So if we can reduce the power consumption of the circuit, we will successfully save the energy of the battery. This way not only can extend the battery life, but also can reduce the replacement rate of batteries to protect the earth. In modern, CPU speed of the phone has been developed to Gega Hertz (GHz) or higher frequency, and the critical circuit of it is the frequency synthesizer. The frequency synthesizer is composed of phase detector, LPF, VCO, and prescaler. Because the prescaler works at the highest frequency of the circuits, it consumes the most power of the entire circuit. In other words, if we can successfully reduce the power of the prescaler, we can save the power of the entire circuit. In order to achieve low power consumption of the prescaler circuit design, we proposed a new design of divide-by-4/5 counter. Because the conventional designs consume unnecessary power during the circuit executing, we used the advantage of the asynchronous trigger technique to improve the conventional designs. We also used the TSMC 0.18 μm process to execute post layout simula
