The carry-select chain performs as the tapped delay line. The Logic Array Block (LAB) having a propagation delay of 165 ps in the chain is synthesized as delay cell. Coarse counters triggered by the global clock count the more significant bits of the time data. This clock is also fed through the delay line, and LABs create the copies. The replicas are latched by the tested event signal, and the less significant bits are encoded from the latched binary bits. Single-shot resolution of the TDC can be 60 ps. The worst Differential Nonlinearity (DNL) is about 0.2 Least Significant Bit (LSB, 165 ps in this TDC module), and the Integral Nonlinearity (INL) is 0.6 LSB. In comparison with other architectures using the synchronous global clock to sample the taps, this architecture consumed less electric power and logic cells, and is more stable.展开更多

The temperature dependence of the specific heat indicates the system has two phase transitions, as verified clearly by the correlation function at three representative tem- peratures. By calculating the magnetic susceptibility, we obtained only the upper critical temperature as To2 = 0.9565（7）. Investigating the fixed-point tensor, we precisely locate the transition temperatures at Tcl = 0.9029（1） and Tc2 = 0.9520（1）, consistent well with the Monte Carlo and the density matrix renormalization group results.展开更多

Because of using the CML circuits, the CDR can operate in a low supply voltage. And the original swing of the differential inputs and outputs is less than that of the CMOS logic. The power supply voltage is 1.2 V, and the static current consumption is about 20 mA. In this phase interpolator CDR, the charge pump and loop filter are replaced by a digital filter. And this structure offers the benefits of increased system stability and faster acquisition.展开更多
