Abstract

A digital phased lock loop includes a digital controlled oscillator configured to produce an output signal at an output signal frequency, and a phase comparator configured to compare the output signal or a signal derived from the output signal, with a reference signal at a reference signal frequency or a signal derived from the reference signal to produce a phase error signal. A first loop filter produces a first control signal for the digital controlled oscillator. A frequency error measuring circuit produces a frequency error signal that directly represents a frequency difference between the output signal frequency and the reference signal frequency. A second loop filter produces a second control signal for the digital controlled oscillator from an output of the frequency error measuring circuit. A circuit combines the first and second control signals and providing the combined control signals to the digital controlled oscillator.
