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 ...

As clock speeds and communication channels run at ever higher frequencies, engineers who have previously had little need to consider clock jitter and phase noise are finding that they need to increase ...

[Kenneth Finnegan] put up a lengthy primer on PLLs (Phase-Locked Loops). We really enjoyed his presentation (even the part where he panders to Rigol for a free scope… sign us up for one of those too).

The phase locked loop, or PLL, is a real workhorse of circuit design. It is a classic feedback loop where the phase of an oscillator is locked to the phase of a ...

I have always had a soft spot for phase-locked loops – at least, I have since I first found out what they were. What I like about them is that they servo into the best answer for a given situation – ...

San Mateo, Calif. - Phase-locked and delay-locked loops are becoming increasingly important weapons in the system-on-chip design arsenal, but PLLs and DLLs are notorious for their difficulty. Now, ...

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 ...
