Abstract

Apparatus and methods for a digital-to-time converter (DTC) are provided. In an example, a DTC can include a phase interpolator and a ring oscillator. The phase interpolator can be configured to receive digital representations of two or more distinct phase signals, and to interpolate the digital representations of the two or more distinct phase signals to provide an interpolated output phase signal. The ring oscillator can be configured to receive the interpolated phase signal, to lock on to a frequency and a phase of the interpolated output phase signal, and to provide a filtered phase signal.
