Some brief theory and typical measurements of phase noise. How to produce the lowest phase noise at a PLL output. A standard design procedure for a typical Type 2, second-order loop. As stated in ...

Few topics in electrical engineering have demanded as much attention over the years as the phase-locked loop (PLL). The PLL is arguably one of the most important building blocks necessary for modern ...

If you want a stable oscillator, you usually think of using a crystal. The piezoelectric qualities of quartz means that it can be cut in a particular way that it will oscillate at a very precise ...

Related to my search for reduced motor noise (and thanks to all who have made suggestions – ‘scope avaunt this weekend), is a search for speed stability in that motor*. And to someone who is in love ...

While analog phase-lock loops (PLLs) still have a home in communication equipment, there is a clear shift in the sector toward implementing digital PLLs (DPLLs) in comm ASIC designs. For example, in ...

I had never heard of the 74HCT9046 phase-locked loop before a fortnight ago, and now I own one. To my shame, it was apparently released by Phillips (now Nexperia) around 20 years ago – that said, the ...

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 ...
