.
Basic PLL Operation
• • •
VCO is a an oscillator whose frequency can be linearly controlled by an input voltage The multiplier output is further filtered by the loop filter and then applied to the input of the VCO The voltage changes the frequency of the VCO and keeps the loop locked by forcing the VCO output to track the face of the input signal
