Lecure 01 (8/9/18) Page 1-3 Wha is a PLL? OPERATING PRINCIPLES OF PLLs A PLL conains hree basic componens as shown below: Inpu Oscillaor Oupu Phase Frequency Deecor Error Volage Conrolled Oscillaor Loop Filer Conolling Volage 140418-01 Phase/frequency deecor deermines he difference beween he phase and/or frequency of wo signals The loop filer removes he high-frequencies from he volage-conrolled oscillaor (VCO) conrolling volage The VCO produces and oupu frequency conrolled by a volage

Lecure 01 (8/9/18) Page 1-5 The Phase Deecor and VCO in more Deail Phase Deecor: where v d () = K d e = K d ( in - osc ) K d is he gain of he phase deecor in = phase shif of he inpu volage osc = phase shif of he VCO oupu volage The unis of K d are vols/radians or simply vols assuming all phase shifs are in radians and no degrees. Volage Conrolled Oscillaor: osc = o + K o v c () where K o is he VCO gain and o is he free-running radian frequency. The unis of K o are rads/sec V or simply (sec V) -1 assuming all phase shifs are in radians and no degrees.
Lecure 01 (8/9/18) Page 1-6 PLL Operaion Locked Operaion: The loop is locked when he frequency of he VCO is exacly equal o he average frequency of he inpu signal. The PLL has he inheren abiliy o suppress noise superimposed on is inpu signal. To mainain he conrol volage needed for locked condiions, i is generally necessary for he oupu of he phase/frequency deecor o be nonzero. Unlocked Operaion: The VCO runs a a frequency called he free running frequency, o, which corresponds o zero conrol volage. The capure process is he means by which he loop goes from unlocked, free-running sae o ha of he locked sae.
