Abstract
A phase continuity architecture is provided to maintain the phase continuity for a post divider output signal from a post divider that post divides a PLL output signal. A pulse swallower removes a pulse from the PLL output signal responsive to an edge is a divided feedback clock signal. A sampler samples the post divider output signal responsive to a detection of the missing pulse to determine a phase relationship between the post divider output signal and the divided feedback clock signal.
