Stratix Architecture
VCO period from up to eight taps for individual fine step selection. Also,
each clock output counter can use a unique initial count setting to achieve
individual coarse shift selection in steps of one VCO period. The
combination of coarse and fine shifts allows phase shifting for the entire
input clock period.
The equation to determine the precision of the phase shifting in degrees
is: 45° ÷ post-scale counter value. Therefore, the maximum step size is
45° , and smaller steps are possible depending on the multiplication and
division ratio necessary on the output counter port.
This type of phase shift provides the highest precision since it is the least
sensitive to process, supply, and temperature variation.
Clock Delay
In addition to the phase shift feature, the ability to fine tune the Ît clock
delay provides advanced time delay shift control on each of the four PLL
outputs. There are time delays for each post-scale counter (e, g, or l) from
the PLL, the n counter, and m counter. Each of these can shift in 250-ps
increments for a range of 3.0 ns. The m delay shifts all outputs earlier in
time, while n delay shifts all outputs later in time. Individual delays on
post-scale counters (e, g, and l) provide positive delay for each output.
Table 2â21 shows the combined delay for each output for normal or zero
delay buffer mode where Îte, Îtg, or Îtl is unique for each PLL output.
The tOUTPUT for a single output can range from â3 ns to +6 ns. The total
delay shift difference between any two PLL outputs, however, must be
less than ±3 ns. For example, shifts on two outputs of â1 and +2 ns is
allowed, but not â1 and +2.5 ns because these shifts would result in a
difference of 3.5 ns. If the design uses external feedback, the Îte delay will
remove delay from outputs, represented by a negative sign (see
Table 2â21). This effect occurs because the Îte delay is then part of the
feedback loop.
Table 2â21. Output Clock Delay for Enhanced PLLs
Normal or Zero Delay Buffer Mode
External Feedback Mode
ÎteOUTPUT = Îtn âÎtm + Îte
ÎtgOUTPUT = Îtn âÎtm + Îtg
ÎtlOUTPUT = Îtn âÎtm + Îtl
ÎteOUTPUT = Îtn âÎtm âÎte (1)
ÎtgOUTPUT = Îtn âÎtm + Îtg
ÎtlOUTPUT = Îtn âÎtm + Îtl
Note to Table 2â21:
(1) Îte removes delay from outputs in external feedback mode.
