This invention relates to a submersible vessel for dry docking a vessel. The submersible vessel comprises a floating unit, a deck above the floating unit and a number of stabilizing towers arranged on the deck. The deck has a base, a sidewall along a perimeter of the base and a block provided within the sidewall and resting on the base, defining a cavity such that when the vessel is being docked onto the deck, a thruster of the vessel is above the cavity.

A phase lock loop having a lock detector is provided. The lock detector is based on a replica charge pump and includes: a charge pump, a filter and a comparing circuit. The charge pump is arranged for providing an output according to a phase difference between an output signal and a reference signal. The filter is coupled to the charge pump, and is arranged for filtering the output of the charge pump to generate a filtered output voltage. The comparing circuit is coupled to the filter, and is arranged for comparing the filtered output voltage with a threshold setting to generate a lock indication signal to indicate whether the output signal is locked to the reference signal.

Lock detector based on charge pump

A level sensitive comparing device includes: a first comparator, a second comparator, and a determination circuit. The first comparator is arranged for comparing an input signal with a first reference level to generate a first comparison signal. The second comparator is arranged for comparing the input signal with a second reference level to generate a second comparison signal, wherein the second reference level is different from the first reference level. The determination circuit is coupled to the first comparator and the second comparator, and is arranged for determining whether the first comparison signal is allowed to appear at an output of the level sensitive comparing device according to at least the first comparison signal and the second comparison signal, wherein the determination circuit is composed of digital components only.
