SAMPLE-RATE CONVERSION IN A MULTI-CLOCK SYSTEM SHARING A COMMON REFERENCE

摘要

A method comprises determining a reference ratio based on a first division ratio of a first phase-locked loop (PLL) and a second division ratio of a second PLL, and converting a first discrete sequence to a second discrete sequence based on a sequence of multiples of the reference ratio. The first and second PLLs operate under a locked condition and share a common reference oscillator. An apparatus includes comprises a clock generator including first and second phase-locked loops (PLLs) and configured to generate first and second clock signals, respectively, and a sample-rate converter configured to convert a first discrete sequence to a second discrete sequence based on a sequence of multiples of a reference ratio. The reference ratio is determined based on a first division ratio of the first PPL and a second division ratio of the second PLL.
