Abstract
A phase-locked loop for controlling the phase of an output signal S,dependent on a reference signal S,with only a small phase timing error has a sampling circuit for sampling the reference signal S,with the output signal S,and for generating a sampling signal S,A, a jitter modulation circuit (,) for generating a sampling signal S,AJ delayed by a defined time duration and for alternating output of the undelayed sampling signal S,A and the delayed sampling signal S,AJ, a phase detector for acquiring an average phase difference between the output signal S,and the delayed and undelayed sampling signals S,A and S,AJ, and a controllable oscillator for generating the output signal S,with a frequency that is controllable dependent on the average phase difference acquired by the phase detector.
