Description

Frequency detector
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to the field of frequency detection, and more particularly, to a frequency detector.
Background
The conventional frequency detector detects the frequency of a circuit to be tested by using the count value of a counter in a period of the circuit to be tested and the count frequency of the counter.
In addition, the operation frequency of many circuits needs to be fixed and cannot vary too much, so it is very important to detect the frequency difference (variation) of the circuits. However, when the frequency difference of the circuit to be detected is detected only by using the counter, if the accuracy of detecting the frequency difference needs to be improved, for example, from 10KiloHertz (10 kilohitz, 10KHz) to 1KHz, the counter needs a longer counting time, which results in a slower speed of detecting the frequency difference. Alternatively, a counter with a higher counting frequency can be used to increase the accuracy of detecting the frequency difference, which may cause a problem of increased power.
There is therefore a need to provide a solution to the above-mentioned problems of the prior art.
