Unlimited bandwidth shifting systems and methods of an all-digital phase locked loop

Abstract

This disclosure is directed towards systems and methods that improve bandwidth shifting operations of an ADPLL without losing a lock of the ADPLL and having the benefit of being able to change the bandwidth an unlimited amount of times. Indeed, a processor may transmit amplification parameters to the ADPLL to implement a bandwidth shift. The shift may occur in response to a enable signal, such as a gear trigger control signal (gear_retime signal) or a enable signal generated to cause alignment of the shifting with a clock signal (e.g., enable signal generated by AND logic gates). These systems and methods described herein many enable multiple bandwidth changing operations to occur without compromising the complexity and footprint of the system.
