To reduce memory requirement we propose to use intermediate coefficients (a and b in the algorithm) directly without taking the mean to generate the filtered output. As bit widths of these coefficients are very high, the memory requirement is reduced by 66.67% while maintaining the quality of output image.","PeriodicalId":248826,"journal":{"name":"2017 International SoC Design Conference (ISOCC)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124637576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It adopts a digital-to-time converter (DTC) and high-speed phase calibration loop that improves sampling rate for the same phase resolution. The DTC consists of a chain delay line with different delay cells to generate a small phase. A feedback loop based on a novel time-to-digital converter (TDC) nested inside the phase modulator sets the DTC output phase accurately across the range of input digital code as well as over process, voltage, and temperature. By using the TDC-based feedback loop, the proposed phase modulator can achieve high sampling rate and small phase resolution. The phase modulator achieves 0.72 degree phase resolution and 40 MS/s sampling rate while consuming 8 mW of power. This phase modulator is implemented in a 180 nm CMOS technology and occupies 0.3 mm2.","PeriodicalId":248826,"journal":{"name":"2017 International SoC Design Conference (ISOCC)","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131788738","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
