Implementation of phase frequency detector in phase locked loop using preset able modified TSPC D flip-flop

Abstract

Phase locked loop (PLL) forms an important part in many applications. Here design of PLL for frequency multiplier operation is considered. Frequency multiplier operation is implemented by using Preset able Modified Single Phase Clock (MTSPC) D flipflop logic circuits in Phase Frequency Detector (PFD). Preset able Modified Single Phase Clock (MTSPC) D flipflops functions at high speed with less power consumption. Noises in the form of glitches are introduced when a preset-able true single phase clocked D flipflop (TSPC) used in Phase Locked Loop. Preset-able modified TSPC (MTSPC) D flipflop used to overcome these glitches caused due to toggling at the output by use of PMOS. Technology applied is 90nm technology. Applications where better speed and reduced power consumption are required, this type of Phase locked loop (PLL) can be utilized.
