Embodiment
According to first specific embodiment of the present invention is the phase-locked loop that Fig. 3 illustrated.Active filter that this loop 30 comprises two phase place detector 31A and 31B, a charge pumping 32, be made up of resistance R, capacitor C, operational amplifier 33A 33, a voltage controlled oscillator 34, a frequency divider 35 and a digital/analog converter 36.
As shown in Figure 3, active filter 33 comprises the first input end that is connected to charge pumping 32, second input that is connected to digital/analog converter 36, and in order to the output of a control signal to be provided.Capacitor C and resistance R coupled in parallel are between this first input end and this output.The function of voltage controlled oscillator 34 is to produce an oscillator signal according to this control signal.35 of frequency dividers are to be responsible for this oscillation signal frequency dividing, to produce a feedback signal.According to reference signal and this feedback signal of input circuit 30, the first phase detectors 31A produces a phase difference signal.Charge pumping 32 can provide the first input end of a charging current to active filter 33 according to this phase difference signal.
The second phase detectors 31B is used for phase difference positive and negative of reference signal detection and feedback signal, and its output signal is a digital reference voltage.For example, this digital reference voltage can be the binary system formula signal of eight bits; This voltage can be the multisection type digital units value that size is had nothing in common with each other to be sent into a digital accumulator (not being illustrated among the figure) produce.Above-mentioned phase difference positive and negative will determine input signal positive and negative of accumulator, and the pace of change of accumulator output valve depends on the size of the input signal of accumulator.For example, when the phase place of the phase-lead feedback signal of reference signal, the input signal of this accumulator is for just.Relatively, when the phase place of the phase lag feedback signal of reference signal, the input signal of this accumulator is for negative.Then, it is an analog reference voltage that digital/analog converter 36 is responsible for this digital reference voltage transitions, and with this analog reference voltage second input to active filter 33 is provided.
Different with traditional second type phase-locked loop is; In loop 30 still before the non-locking, the digital charge path of being made up of the second phase detectors 31B and digital/analog converter 36 can be designed to directly according to the positive and negative of phase difference and big or small specific charge volume is provided.Shown in Figure 4 for comparing a voltage lock-out state example of present embodiment and prior art; Transverse axis among the figure is the time, and the longitudinal axis then is the magnitude of voltage control voltage of voltage controlled oscillator 34 (that is offer) of the output of active filter 33.Can find out that by Fig. 4 if adopt the conventional architectures like Fig. 2, the damping of a period of time can appear in this voltage before tending towards stability.Relatively, if adopt according to framework of the present invention, the analog reference voltage that digital/analog converter 36 is provided can be approached certain stationary value fast, makes the voltage of the output of active filter 33 stablize fast by this.
For example, like the section O-A that indicates among Fig. 4, the second phase detectors 31B can be fixed as the input of accumulator one and preset than the big unit value, makes the voltage of the output of active filter 33 drawn high apace.Then; Like the section A-B that indicates among Fig. 4, when certain time that configures of process, the second phase detectors 31B can change the input of this accumulator into another preset intermediate cells value; Make the voltage rate of rise of the output of active filter 33 slow down, and convergence lock-out state gradually.As shown in Figure 4, if adopt according to the framework in the present embodiment, the phase-locked loop can more get into lock-out state than prior art soon.In other words, by suitably controlling the reference voltage that offers active filter 33, can avoid damping and effectively shorten loop 30 getting into the required time of lock-out state according to way of the present invention.Be not limited to shown in Figure 4ly on the practice, the output initial value of above-mentioned accumulator can be the formula of can setting, and for example is set to 1/2nd or any preset value of ordering through the design choosing of the supply voltage VDD of phase-locked loop.If the voltage of output that makes active filter 33 is by the stable target voltage that reaches of VDD/2, pressure reduction that must variation because of institute tails off, and lock speed is faster.
See also Fig. 5, Fig. 5 is the calcspar according to second specific embodiment of the present invention.Compared to shown in Figure 3, the loop 30 in the present embodiment further comprises in order to replace the capacitor C of above-mentioned accumulator P, switch 37 and handover module 38.Capacitor C PBe coupled to this second input of active filter 33,37 on switch is to be coupled to 36 of this second input and digital/analog converters.To follow the trail of (tracking) pattern by the entering of acquisition (acquisition) pattern when phase-locked loop 30, handover module 38 meeting control switchs 37 are to block the binding between digital/analog converter 36 and this second input.
Be at switch 37 and make under digital/analog converter 36 and the situation that this second input links to each other, the function mode of this phase-locked loop and shown in Figure 3 roughly the same also is equivalent to the second type phase-locked loop shown in Figure 2.When switch 37 is controlled as the binding of blocking between digital/analog converter 36 and this second input, be equivalent to by capacitor C PStored electric charge continues the required reference voltage of supply active filter 33.After this binding was blocked, the operating mode in this loop promptly was equivalent to the first type phase-locked loop.
The advantage of phase-locked loop shown in Figure 5 is: (1) is compared to the first traditional type phase-locked loop; The acquisition pattern of this framework mainly provides filter required reference voltage by digital charge path, therefore can avoid damping and effectively shorten loop 30 getting into the required time of lock-out state; (2) change mode operating after will getting into the tracking pattern, promptly needn't adopt the very meticulous digital/analog converter 36 of minimum bit, also can reach the accurate effect of locking of control voltage that makes voltage controlled oscillator 34 with the first type phase-locked loop.
