lib_sw_pll

Summary¶

This library provides software that, together with the xcore.ai application PLL, provides a PLL that will generate a clock that is phase-locked to an input clock.

It supports both Look Up Table (LUT) and Sigma Delta Modulated (SDM) Digitally Controlled Oscillators (DCO), a Phase Frequency Detector (PFD) and configurable Proportional Integral (PI) controllers which together form a hybrid Software/Hardware Phase Locked Loop (PLL).

Examples are provided showing a master clock locking to a low frequency input reference clock and also to an I²S slave interface.

In addition, an API providing a range of fixed clocks supporting common master clock frequencies between 11.2896 MHz and 49.152 MHz is available in cases where phase locking is not required.

Features¶

• High quality clock recovery using on-board PLL

• Flexible clock reference (external pin or internal source)

• Low resource usage

• Optional Sigma-Delta Modulator

• Fixed output clock option for typical audio master clocks

• Hardware locks: fast and power efficient but there are a limited number per tile

• Software locks: slower but an unlimited number can be used
