Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Low power design is essential for mobile application. For a PLL with multiphase outputs, level shifter (LS), which converts oscillator-output-level to that of power supply, consumes much power; hence, we have devised a new architecture called a multiphase-output level shift system (M-LS) which has only three transistors in each LS and cuts off short current perfectly. Moreover, we have connected between the adjacent phases of M-LS with a resistor to improve phase accuracy. The two key techniques mentioned above make power consumption 1/15 of the conventional LS. The PLL consumes about 1mA at 123MHz and accomplishes 63-phase accuracy of 0.5LSB.
