Abstract:Phase Locked Loop (PLL) is a fundamental part of radio, wireless and telecommunication
technology. The goal of this document is to review the theory, design and analysis of PLL
circuits. PLL is a simple negative feedback architecture that allows economic
multiplication of crystal frequencies by large variable numbers. By studying the loop
components and their reaction to various noise sources, we will show that PLL is
uniquely suited for generation of stable, low noise tunable RF signals for radio, timing and
wireless applications.
Some of the main challenges fulfilled by PLL technology are economy in size, power and
cost while maintaining good spectral purity.
This document details basic loop transfer functions, loop dynamics, noise sources and
their effect on signal noise profile, phase noise theory, loop components (VCO, crystal
oscillators, dividers and phase detectors) and principles of integer-N and fractional-N
technology. The approach will be mainly heuristic, with many design examples.
This document is written for designers, technicians and project managers. Design
procedures, equations, performance interpretation, CAD and examples are included to
help those who have little experience. A list of reference books and articles is also
included. |
