Sydney, Australia – Perceptia Devices today announced the availability of the preliminary characterisation report for its pPLL08W wide-range phase-locked loop (PLL) IP implemented in GlobalFoundries’ 22FDX® process technology.
The report details early performance results of pPLL08W in 22FDX, showing low phase noise and spurs, wide frequency coverage, and low power consumption. Designed with a focus on RF applications, the pPLL08W is particularly well suited for use in wireless communication systems, including 5G radios, WiFI radios and IoT transceivers.
“This preliminary report confirms that pPLL08W delivers the performance and reliability demanded by RF system designers on GF’s 22FDX platform,” said Tim Robins, VP Engineering at Perceptia Devices. “By demonstrating low jitter and broad frequency support, pPLL08W enables next-generation RF SoCs to achieve the high data rates and power efficiency demanded by modern radio standards.”
Perceptia’s pPLL08W provides a robust frequency synthesis solution tailored to the stringent requirements of RF designs. With its wide operating frequency range and excellent phase noise characteristics, it enables accurate carrier generation, high-speed data transmission, and reliable connectivity in advanced wireless systems.
The availability of the preliminary characterisation data provides design teams with an early look at performance, helping to reduce integration risk and accelerate time-to-market for RF SoCs. The final silicon characterisation report will be released upon completion of full measurement campaigns.
pPLL08W is a wideband, LC tank based, RF phase-locked loop (PLL) IP core, capable of generating output frequencies from 5.5MHz to 10.6GHz. Designed for use in a wide range of wireless and communication applications, such as 5G, where a broad range of carrier frequencies are used, it delivers superior phase noise and integration flexibility. pPLL08W enables designers to confidently implement advanced timing architectures without compromising on area or power.
