摘要:High performance phase frequency detector (PFD) is one of the key modules in high speed delay-locked loop (DLL). The operation of DLL depends on the performance of its detector. The demand for the reduction of power dissipation in CMOS design is a challenge in order to optimize circuit power consumption. A low power dynamic pseudo-PMOS PFD is proposed to make DLL system more reliable. In this work NOR gate of typical TSPC PFD is replaced with a low power dissipation pseudo-PMOS AND gate built of 3 PMOS transistors. Pseudo-PMOS AND integrated into proposed TSPC PFD to run maximum frequency at 1G Hz with 1.8 V input power supply. This proposed PFD has been implemented in Mentor Graphics 0.18 μm CMOS process technology and consumed 163.36 �m2 active layout area with 206 nW total power dissipation will further trim down the total cost of the DLL.
