Abstract
A frequency synthesis device includes a servo circuit for controlling an output frequency to an input reference frequency. The circuit includes a first phase accumulator clocked by the reference frequency, a phase comparison block, a loop filter and an oscillator. It further includes a feedback loop connecting the output to the comparison block, having a second phase accumulator clocked by the output frequency. The comparison block includes T phase comparators with logic gates receiving respectively T first logic signals from the servo circuit on T first inputs and T second logic signals from the feedback loop on T second inputs, the T first and second signals having logic levels that continuously depend on values provided by the first and second accumulators according to at least one multi-phase correspondence matrix.
