Abstract

A multi-segment digital-to-time converter is provided. The digital-to-time converter includes a plurality of delay stages arranged in series, and a plurality of local synchronization logic circuits each configured to control an associated delay stage of the plurality of delay stages. Each local synchronization logic circuit provides a digital-to-time converter code and a reset signal to the associated delay stage synchronized to a local input clock and a local output clock of the associated delay stage.
