Phase-Locked Loop Applications

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 ...

Great phase-locked loop motor control app note

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 ...

A tiny useful discovery about the 4046 phase locked loop chip

Whilst poring over 4046 phase locked loop data sheets, I noticed yet another subtle useful difference between the the later faster 74HC4046 (diag from NXP data sheet) and the earlier slower CD4046.
