Zusammenfassung: | Disclosed is a card clock recovery system for use in an NFC card transceiver couplable to an NFC reader. The card clock recovery system has: a phase lock loop having: a phase/frequency detector, which is configured to receive a reference signal provided at an RX port of a matching network during a receiving mode of the NFC transceiver or to receive a reference signal provided at the RX port of the matching network during a transmission mode of the NFC transceiver, to receive a loop feedback signal, and to provide a phase error signal that represents a phase difference between the reference signal and the loop feedback signal; a loop filter configured to receive a corrected phase error signal that is derived from the phase error signal, and to provide a filtered corrected phase error signal; a controllable oscillator, which is configured to receive the filtered corrected phase error signal and to provide a controlled frequency output signal, which is provided as the card clock generation control signal to a card clock generation unit of an NFC card transceiver, and as the loop feedback signal, via the loop feedback line, to the phase/frequency detector. The card clock recovery system further has a phase offset correction unit, which is configured to receive the phase error signal provided by the phase/frequency detector and to provide the corrected phase error signal to the loop filter, and which has a phase error sampling unit, a phase offset computation unit, and a phase subtractor unit. |
