Abstract

A circuit according to an example includes a controllable oscillator configured to generate an output signal based on a control signal, an input signal processing circuit configured to receive a reference signal and configured to generate a sequence of digital values indicative of a phase relation between the reference signal and the output signal or a signal derived from the output signal, and a digital data processing circuit configured to generate a sequence of processed values at a lower frequency than a frequency of the sequence of the digital values, each processed value being based on a plurality of the digital values of the sequence of digital values, wherein the control signal is based on the sequence of processed values.
