Abstract
Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to techniques and apparatus for doubling the frequency of a signal. For example, certain aspects are directed to a phase frequency detector (PFD)-based rising-edge-delay-only frequency doubling circuit. One example frequency doubler circuit generally includes a first delay stage, a second delay stage, a first PFD, a first rising-edge-only adjustable delay cell, a second PFD, a second rising-edge-only adjustable delay cell a logic gate, and a comparator configured to compare a direct-current (DC) voltage value of an output of the logic gate with a reference voltage and control the first and second rising-edge-only adjustable delay cells based on the comparison.
