Abstract:
Described is an apparatus which comprises: a time-to-digital converter (TDC) to receive a reference clock and a feedback clock, wherein the TDC is to generate a digital output code representing a time difference between the reference clock and the feedback clock; a circuitry to apply a digital code to an output of the TDC; and a node to receive the digital output code from the TDC and the digital code from the circuitry, wherein the circuitry is to monitor the digital output code and to control the TDC according to at least the monitored digital output code.

Claim (Index 17):
An apparatus comprising:\n a first circuitry to receive a reference clock and a feedback clock, wherein the first circuitry is to generate a digital code representing a time difference between the reference clock and the feedback clock; a second circuitry coupled to the first circuitry, wherein the second circuitry is to receive a modulated output of the first circuitry as input, wherein the modulated output is a modulated version of the digital code; and a third circuitry coupled to the first and second circuitries, wherein the third circuitry is to adjust one or more parameters of the second circuitry according to an output of the second circuitry.
