An Ultra-Low-Power 2.4 GHz All-Digital Phase-Locked Loop With Injection-Locked Frequency Multiplier and Continuous Frequency Tracking

This paper presents a 0.46 mW and 2.4 GHz; All-Digital Phase-Locked Loop (ADPLL) through an Injection-Locked Frequency Multiplier (ILFM) and Continuous Frequency Tracking Loop (CFTL) circuitry for low power Internet-of-Thing (IoT) applications. In the proposed ADPLL architecture to save power, the n...
