But taking a voltage-controlled oscillator at 100 MHz (nominal) and dividing its output by 100 will give you a signal you can lock to a 1 MHz crystal oscillator which is, of course, trivial to build.

That big grandfather clock in the library might be an impressive piece of mechanical ingenuity, and an even better example of fine cabinetry, but we’d expect that the accuracy of a pendulum timepiece ...

Some brief theory and typical measurements of phase noise. Standard analysis of PLL phase noise used by most CAD applications. How to produce the lowest phase noise at a PLL output. A standard design ...

The HEF4046B is a phase-locked loop circuit that contains a linear voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) and two discrete phase comparators that has a common signal input amplifier and a common ...

Learn about the working principles of Phase-Locked Loops (PLL) and why they are widely used for applications where frequency tracking, resonance driving, and oscillator control are required.

The NB4N507A is a fully integrated phase lock loop (PLL) designed to replace expensive crystal oscillators for clock generation in a variety of consumer and networking applications. The IC generates a ...

Radiation-hardened phase-locked loop (PLL) circuits represent a critical advancement in safeguarding electronic systems against the deleterious effects of ionising radiation. These circuits are ...

The total power consumption of the proposed PLL is only 8.89 mW from a 1 V supply, which leads to a figure of merit of reference of -247.4 dB. Credit must be given to the creator. Only noncommercial ...

This application note discusses phase frequency detector characteristics that affect phase-locked loop (PLL) dead band and jitter performance. In PLLs that employ charge pump loop filter designs the ...
