• The phase lock loop (PLL) is a frequency
selective feedback system which can
synchronize with a selected input signal and
track the frequency changes associated with
it.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL

• The basic PLL system is comprised of three
essential blocks:
• A phase detector,
• A loop filter, and
• A voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO).

Phase Detector
• The phase detector compares the
phase of the periodic input signal Vs(t)
with the output frequency of VCO and
generate an error voltage Vd(t).
• The error voltage is then filtered by the
loop filter and is applied to the VCO in the
form of the voltage Ve(t) to control the
frequency of oscillation.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
4
• When the PLL is locked on the input signal (normal
PLL operation), the VCO frequency is identical to the
input frequency fs, except for finite phase difference,
qo.
• This net phase difference of phase error, qo, is necessary to
generate the corrective error voltage, Ve(t), to shift the VCO
frequency to higher frequencies if fs starts to increase, or to
lower frequencies if fs starts to decrease in order to maintain
lock.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
5
• The figure shows the case when the input
frequency is equal to wo (the so called freerunning frequency) and increases to 2wo.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
6
• The self-correcting ability of the system
allows the PLL to track the frequency
changes of an input signal, once it is
locked.
• The range of frequencies over which the
PLL can maintain lock with the input is
defined as the lock range.
• The lock range cannot exceed the range of
control of the VCO.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
7
• Lock does not exist all the time.
• With no input signal applied to the PLL,
the filtered error voltage Ve(t) in the
feedback loop is equal to zero.
• Thus, the PLL operates at the free-running
frequency:
w o  2f o
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
8
• If a periodic input signal Vs(t) is applied
to the PLL such that ws is sufficiently
close to wo, the feedback nature of the
PLL causes an error voltage Ve(t) to be
generated.
• The forces the VCO to synchronize with
the input frequency, and the PLL will be
locked.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
9
• The range of frequencies over which
the PLL can acquire lock with the
incoming signal is called the capture
range or (acquisition range).
• The capture range is always smaller than
the lock range.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
10
• When the PLL is locked, the VCO output
provides a periodic waveform which is at the
same exact frequency as the input signal,
except for a finite difference qo, which is the
phase difference necessary to generate Ve to
keep the PLL in lock.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
11
• If the input signal includes many frequency
components and noise and other
disturbances, the PLL will be locked on one
component (closest to wo).
• The frequency output of PLL will regenerate this
particular component eliminating the other
undesired frequencies.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
12
• Assume that the PLL is opened
between the loop filter output and the
VCO control input.
• This would cause the error voltage to be
artificially reduced to zero, and the VCO
will continue to oscillate at the free-running
frequency, fo.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
13
• Let the input signal of fs (fs > fo, yet
close to fo) be applied.
• Since the phase detector normally
functions as a mixer, the output of the
phase detector will be two frequency
components,
• a sum frequency (fsum = fo + fs) and
• a difference frequency (Df = fo – fs).
• Any mixer can be used as a phase detector.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
14
• The loop filter is a narrow-band low
pass filter that filters fsum leaving the
difference frequency (Df = fo – fs).
• If fs is close to fo, the difference frequency
will appear at the output of the loop filters
as a sinusoidal beat note.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
15
• If the loop is closed, the VCO frequency
will be modulated by the beat note.
• Df becomes a function of time.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
16
• The portion of the beat note that modulates the VCO
closer to the input signal appears more rounded, and
the portion that modulates the VCO away from the
input signal appears more peaked.
• Because of the asymmetry, the beat note contains a finite
DC voltage which steadily pushes the VCO frequency
toward the input signal.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
17
• As the VCO drifts toward fs, the beat note frequency
rapidly decreases, the asymmetry increases, and the
transient rapidly converges to a steady-state DC
value, corresponding to the lock condition where the
VCO frequency is exactly equal to fs.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
18
• Once the system is locked, the difference Df
is identically equal to zero, and only a DC
voltage
Ve  Ve (t ) steady state   K dq o
generated by the phase difference between
the VCO output and the input signal, remains
at the loop filter output.
• It is assumed that the detector characteristic has
a gain of Kd(V/rad), and the filter has unity gain at
DC.
Dr. Blanton - ENTC 4307 - More PLL
19
• The total time taken by the PLL to
establish lock is called pull-in time.
