Fig. 9 is one group of voltage and time relation figure, and it shows that this clock circuit is the ability to bear that how to have the ground noise change, and it produces the clock sequential can be to changing along with the ground noise of time change significantly.
Fig. 9 shows that locus O X and OY are how by ground noise, are influenced for the REF_LO signal in this figure.When ground noise had a peak value, then this sequential circuit can begin to charge to from REF_LO the program of REF_HI, caused sequence circuit only to need the less time just can charge to REF_HI from REF_LO.Therefore, the output 910 of this clock signal has a wider change in this clock in the cycle.
When ENX was high levle, OX kept ground connection and voltage to change along with ground noise.When ENX is a low level, and close NMOS, then ground noise is maintained at OX.But still change along with ground noise with reference to accurate position.The worst situation be OX keep the ground noise of a high levle and between charge period this reference circuit bear the accurate position of a negative ground connection; Then this reference value can be low far beyond being contemplated to.So Shu similar sampling and holding structure in REFX or REFY keep the same ground noise.
Figure 10 is one group of voltage and time relation figure, and it shows that this clock circuit is the ability to bear that how to have the ground noise change, and it can produce metastable clock sequential because of the circuit among Fig. 8 in to the ground noise that changes along with the time.
Figure 10 shows that locus O X and OY are how by ground noise, are influenced for the REF_LO signal in this figure.When ground noise had a peak value or other change, then this peak value or other change can be stored in the capacitive node REF X among Fig. 8 or REF is Y.Because ground noise keeps reference circuit to follow the trail of the influence of REF_LO signal by the sampling back, this accurate position circuit for detecting is the autocollimatic position detecting reference circuit ground noise more identical with sequence circuit.After the mode that ground noise is kept by the back of taking a sample with this, ground noise, it can continue to change, and removes coupling since then in the sample circuit.Therefore, this sequential circuit charges in the program of REF_HI not one from REF_LO to begin in advance, though ground noise is arranged, this sequential circuit still needs the identical time charge to REF_HI from REF_LO.Therefore, cause this clock signal output 910 under an extensive ground noise that changes, still to have the identical clock cycle.
In another embodiment, be when discharge, this ground noise and sample circuit releasing to be coupled again after ground noise is taken a sample, rather than when charging, this ground noise and sample circuit releasing are coupled shown in Fig. 9 and Figure 10.This embodiment can cause additional problems because must solve the power supply noise problem that the self noise power regulator is produced.
(similar Fig. 2 C) in another embodiment, this sampling and holding circuit can keep power supply noise rather than ground noise.

The sequence circuit 1102A and the 1102B that show parallel placement in the accompanying drawing, the accurate position commutation circuit 1104A and the 1104B of parallel placement, and a latch circuit 1106.Sequential power supply and accurate position switching reference value generator 1116A and the 1116B of also comprising as shown in the figure, it can produce the identical noise phase of power supply noise of the reference signal of the accurate position detecting of exporting with the power supply noise and the sequential circuit of sequence circuit power supply.
In Figure 11 A, this condenser network CX or CY and couple.In Figure 11 B, this condenser network CX or CY and power supply 1116A or 1116B couple.
Figure 12 shows the circuit diagram of a power circuit, and its power supply noise with the reference signal that the accurate position that the power supply noise and the sequential circuit of sequence circuit power supply are exported is detected is shared identical noise phase.
Figure 12 shows that a power supply 1236 drives an operational amplifier 1232.This operational amplifier has a reference signal REF_OP 1234 in its noninverting input.One of this REF_OP 1234 is illustrated as an energy gap reference circuit in 1.3V.The output that one metal oxide semiconductor field effect answers transistor 1238 to have a gate and operational amplifier 1232 couples, and a drain and power supply 1236 couple, and reaches one source pole and sequential power supply output 1246 and couples.Sequential power supply output 1246 is separated by resistance R 1 1240 with accurate position switching reference value 1248.The negative feedback point of reference value 1248 and operational amplifier 1232 is switched by resistance R 2 1242 separations in accurate position.At last, resistance R 3 with this negative feedback point with couple.
The capacitive coupling that another embodiment then uses the suspension joint node is switched identical noise phase between the reference value 1248 to keep sequential power supply output 1246 with accurate position, and wherein sequential power supply output 1246 is suspension joint with one of accurate position switching reference value 1248.
Though the above embodiments are that especially identical noise phase designs between sequential power supply output 1246 and the accurate position switching reference value 1248 in order to keep, and then are not like this in other the design.Sequential power supply output 1246 and accurate position are switched between the reference value 1248 for one of following reason or many persons and had different noise phase in other the design: (1) makes reference circuit and keeps clear of sequence circuit because of the configuration of crystal grain; (2) to have than the VDD power supply be good power supply supply refusal ratio (PSRR) to the reference circuit in the adjuster; Reach (3) even the RC power supply has power regulator, because different output loadings and transformation, a noise phase difference still can be kept, and this power regulator must support big electric current and bigger output to change.
Figure 13 is one group of voltage and time relation figure, and it shows because like the circuit relationships among Figure 11 or Figure 12, how between sequence circuit power supply and accurate the reference signal of detecting that is used in sequence circuit output, has identical noise phase.

Figure 14 shows how locus O X and OY are influenced by power supply noise 1401.When power supply noise had one to decline to a great extent, then this sequential circuit can begin to charge to from REF_LO the program of REF_HI, caused sequence circuit only to need the less time just can charge to REF_HI from REF_LO.Similarly, when power supply noise had a peak value, then this sequential circuit can become slower from the program that REF_LO charges to REF_HI, caused sequence circuit to need more time just can charge to REF_HI from REF_LO.These changes are after reference value is switched in the accurate position of one stable (definite value), to take place.Therefore, the output 1410 of this clock signal has a wider change in this clock in the cycle.
Figure 15 is one group of voltage and time relation figure; It shows that this clock circuit is the ability to bear that how to have the power supply noise change, and it can produce metastable clock sequential because of the circuit among Figure 11 and Figure 12 in to the power supply noise that significantly changes along with the time.
Figure 15 shows how locus O X and OY are influenced by ground noise 1401.With the 14th figure is different is, when power supply noise 1501 had a peak value or other change, then accurate position was switched reference value and is had a synchronous peak value or other change.Compare with power supply noise and have a less size though reference value is switched in this peak value or other change in this accurate position, reduced the change of clock signal between the sequence circuit power supply 1501 and the synchronizing characteristics of accurate switching reference value significantly.Therefore, the output 1510 of this clock signal has at ground noise and still has under the situation moving than extent common clock cycle.
