Wide Tracking Range, Auto Ranging, Low Jitter Phase Lock Loop For Swept And Fixed Frequency Systems
US Patent:
6307411, Oct 23, 2001
Filed:
Oct 13, 2000
Appl. No.:
9/689976
Inventors:
Thomas M. Kerner - Manorville NY
Assignee:
Brookhaven Science Associates - Upton NY
International Classification:
H03L 706
US Classification:
327156
Abstract:
The present invention provides a wide tracking range phase locked loop (PLL) circuit that achieves minimal jitter in a recovered clock signal, regardless of the source of the jitter (i. e. whether it is in the source or the transmission media). The present invention PLL has automatic harmonic lockout detection circuitry via a novel lock and seek control logic in electrical communication with a programmable frequency discriminator and a code balance detector. (The frequency discriminator enables preset of a frequency window of upper and lower frequency limits to derive a programmable range within which signal acquisition is effected. The discriminator works in combination with the code balance detector circuit to minimize the sensitivity of the PLL circuit to random data in the data stream). In addition, the combination of a differential loop integrator with the lock and seek control logic obviates a code preamble and guarantees signal acquisition without harmonic lockup. An adaptive cable equalizer is desirably used in combination with the present invention PLL to recover encoded transmissions containing a clock and/or data.
