In this paper, a high-accuracy programmable timing generator with wide-range tuning capability is proposed. With the aid of dual delay-locked loop (DLL), both of the coarse- and fine-tuning mechanisms are operated in precise closed-loop scheme to lessen the effects of the ambient variations. The timing generator can provide sub-gate resolution and instantaneous switching capability. The circuit is implemented and simulated in TSMC 0.18 μm 1P6M technology. The test chip area occupies 1.9 mm2. The reference clock cycle can be divided into 128 bins by interpolation to obtain 14 ps resolution with the clock rate at 550 MHz. The INL and DNL are within −0.21~+0.78 and −0.27~+0.43 LSB, respectively.

This paper presents a high-accuracy complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) driven ultrasonic ranging system based on air coupled aluminum nitride (AlN) based piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducers (PMUTs) using time of flight (TOF). The mode shape and the time-frequency characteristics of PMUTs are simulated and analyzed. Two pieces of PMUTs with a frequency of 97 kHz and 96 kHz are applied. One is used to transmit and the other is used to receive ultrasonic waves. The Time to Digital Converter circuit (TDC), correlating the clock frequency with sound velocity, is utilized for range finding via TOF calculated from the system clock cycle. An application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) chip is designed and fabricated on a 0.18 μm CMOS process to acquire data from the PMUT. Compared to state of the art, the developed ranging system features a wide range and high accuracy, which allows to measure the range of 50 cm with an average error of 0.63 mm. AlN based PMUT is a promising candidate for an integrated portable ranging system.
