Well? Is someone going to analyse the schematic and tell me how it
works? Accurate Algebraic solutions only, please! No hand waving :)

Hi Jim,

when I was a boy of 12 or so, I spent several years trying to understand the
MC4044 datasheet. Alas I knew no engineers, but instead tried schoolteachers
etc. No-one could tell me how to pick Wn or delta (I was attempting to
design a floppy disk controller and needed a PLL. Knowing what PLL meant
would have helped :)

Years later I learned it is quite possible to have a BE, ME or even PhD and
STILL not know how to choose Wn and delta. And of course that you cant be a
"real" engineer until you have mastered 2nd order systems.

I love old datasheets - they used to have information on them. I hate
microcontroller datasheets - many manufacturers give little or no electrical
specs.

Cheers
Terry

Jim,
I went through that exercise years ago, and came up with a modification that
worked with random data. But, as I recall, there are two flip-flops. One
gets toggled by a clock transition, and cleared by a reference transition.
The other gets toggled by a reference transition, and cleared by a clock
transition. So, one of the FFs tells you how much the oscillator is leading
the reference, the other FF tells you how much the oscillator is lagging the
reference. These control the U/D charge pumps.

How's my memory?

Lousy ;-) You're reciting Phase/Frequency Detector jargon... the
MC4024 is a VCM (Voltage-Controlled-Multivibrator), with better than a
3:1 tuning range.

So you win some, lose some. I actually went to your web site, but must have
clicked on the wrong thing. Came up with a phase detector. Never used a
4024, but used the ECL one that works with an LC.

Probably, except it can't handle "random" data, i.e. with missing
transitions... it'll run off into la la land. But the "phase jerk"
methods that I have posted will.

"the ECL one that works with an LC", that would be another of my
designs, the MC1648 (or, IIRC, now revitalized on a faster process as
the MC12048).

Are you thinking of the MC12148? Sadly discontinued long ago.

That was the change. It did handle random data. Missing data transitions
caused equal positive and negative error pulses.

Faster process?? I went Googling for PLLs, previously under the
impression that a PLL was really cooking if it was running at 100 MHz.
Man, was I in for a surprise! Of course, some of what I found was
research papers on experimental devices, but...

and many other research papers.

The MC1648 would do about 300MHz (designed around 1968). The MC12148
probably will do close to 1GHz.

I've done custom chips as high as 3.8GHz.

I'm working a chip design right now (actually writing up the final
design review as we speak) that runs at 2112MHz.
