7. Delay Locked Loop 32 delay elements 100ps delay each Phase detector Bang-bang detector only gives information of the sign of phase error Charge Pump Adjusts the delay by increasing/ decreasing control voltage by adding/removing charge in C C

8. DLL – Charge Pump Capacitance and current of Charge Pump affects Accuracy of the delay (jitter) Speed of the loop Time to achieve lock Response time for changes (in the clock phase, etc) Need for further simulations to optimize capacitance size against speed 1 st order system - inherently stable loop When higher order poles are at high frequencies
