Digital Delay Locked Loop (DLL) are commonly used for clock synchronization in modern ICs because of their superior stability and process portability. The DLL has a graduated course delay line and a phase interpolating fine delay line. Keywords- All digital delay locked loop (ADDLL), clock generator, Jitter, agilent E4422B, Oscilloscope 54833D. 1. Introduction There are two components that establish the amount of power dissipated in a CMOS circuit. These are: Figure 1.Block Diagram of power dissipation Power dissipation has skyrocketed due to transistor scaling, chip transistor counts and clock frequencies.

Delay Locked Loop: In electronics, a delay-locked loop (DLL) is a digital circuit similar to a phase locked loop (PLL), with the main difference being the absence of an internal voltage controlled oscillator, replaced by a delay line. As the clock frequency of synchronous VLSI circuits increases, there arises a greater need to correctly align system clocks. Emphasis must be placed on suppressing clock skew and jitter. As the clock period is reduced, if jitter and skew remain the same, the total clock phase error is increased. This can affect many aspects of a synchronous system, including setup and hold times, data access times, and accuracy of internal control signals. To eliminate clock skew, a simple, fixed-delay circuit might be used, but with variations in process, voltage, and temperature (PVT), the delay time would vary. Also, if the clock period were to change, the delay time would need to be modified. Therefore, a dynamic, variable delay circuit is needed to eliminate system clock skew across PVT and varying clock frequencies. A Delay-Locked Loop (DLL) is such a circuit. Fig. 1 shows a DLL being used to ensure proper synchronization between a synchronous memory device and a memory controller. In this simple example, the DLL within the memory device is used to ensure that there is no skew between the control clock generated by the controller and the data coming out of the memory. This is especially important when a fast control clock is used; if skew remains in the output data while using a fast clock rate, the memory controller might have a difficult time distinguishing from one bit to the next being clocked from the memory. As synchronous memory moves to other standards, such as double-data rate (DDR) devices, where data is clocked out on both the rising and falling edges of the control clock, the problem of internal clock skew is compounded. A DLL can solve this problem by ensuring proper synchronization across PVT as well as variations in the control clock frequency [1], [2].
