Accuracy on-chip clock generator for multi-clock driven single chip solution

摘要

A mixed-signal chip is described. The mixed-signal chip comprises a first portion of analog circuit and second portion of digital circuit, an on-chip precision oscillator residing on the first analog portion, the precision oscillator has a precision frequency; a first on-chip non-precision tunable oscillator from a first clock domain residing on the first analog portion, the first non-precision tunable oscillator has a first adjustable frequency; a noise detector for detecting a first noise in the first clock domain; a frequency adjusting register for storing a first desired frequency value of the first on-chip non-precision tunable oscillator, wherein the first desired frequency value is determined based on the first detected noise; a control circuit for adjusting the adjustable frequency of the first non-precision tunable oscillator to the first desired frequency value by using the precision frequency of the on-chip precision oscillator as a reference.
