Abstract
A phase frequency detection circuit and method in a phase lock loop circuit uses delay circuits to limit the period of expression of up and down signals which adjust the output frequency of a voltage controlled oscillator. The pulse frequency detection circuit includes cross-linked latches to drive logic gates which produce output signals for adjusting the output frequency of a voltage controlled oscillator and delay circuitry connected to the outputs of particular logic gates for selective nullification of up and down control signals to a voltage controlled oscillator.
