A digital fractional-N phase locked loop (PLL) with multi-rate dynamic element matching (DEM) and an adaptive mismatch-noise cancellation (MNC) is provided. The PLL includes a phase error to digital converter and a digital loop filter to suppress quantization noise of the phase error to digital converter and drive a digitally controlled oscillator. A digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) with a multi-rate DEM encoder includes an integer bank of frequency control elements (FCE) and a fractional bank of frequency control elements. Adaptive mismatch-noise cancellation logic operates to cancel DCO phase error arising from frequency control element (FCE) static and dynamic mismatch error by estimating ideal MNC coefficient values during PLL normal operation, estimating MNC coefficient errors at each sample time, and updating the MNC coefficient values to approach zero (FCE) static and dynamic mismatch error.

Methods, systems, and devices for section-based data protection in a memory device are described. In one example, a memory device may include a set memory sections each having memory cells configured to be selectively coupled with access lines of the respective memory section. A method of operating the memory device may include selecting at least one of the sections for a voltage adjustment operation based on a determined value of a timer, and performing the voltage adjustment operation on the selected section by activating each of a plurality of word lines of the selected section. The voltage adjustment operation may include applying an equal voltage to opposite terminals of the memory cells, which may allow built-up charge, such as leakage charge accumulating from access operations of the selected memory section, to dissipate from the memory cells of the selected section.

Systems, methods, and circuitries are provided for resonator-based local oscillator signal generation for receiving self-interference signals. An interference cancellation system for a transceiver includes a resonator configured to generate a high-frequency signal and a local oscillator circuitry. The local oscillator circuitry includes a digital-to time converter configured to receive the high-frequency signal and, in response, generate a clock signal for receiving an interfering signal having an interference frequency. Digital cancellation circuitry is configured to adapt operation of the transceiver based, at least in part, on the received interfering signal.

Described herein are systems and methods that provide for asymmetric image splitter image stream applications. In one embodiment, a system supporting image multi-streaming comprises an asymmetric image splitter engine that splits super-frame image streams into two or more image streams and a fractional clock divider circuit. The fractional clock divider may comprise a digital feedback control loop and a one-bit sigma delta modulator. The fractional clock divider circuit may provide compatible display clock frequencies for each of the two or more image streams. When a multi-image stream comprises the two image streams, the asymmetric image splitter engine adjusts a vertical asymmetry of a first image stream with a shortest height to same height as a second image stream by adding vertical padding to the first image stream. The super-frame image streams may comprise image streams from video, LIDAR, radar, or other sensors.
