ABSTRACT:
A phase-locked-loop circuit configuration is described which eliminates the statistical nature of the acquisition process, thereby improving or decreasing the acquisition or lock-up-time of the loop. The circuit configuration is such that given an input signal, that occurs at time T.sub.0, the loop error signal is reduced to a level where the lock-up-time is substantially reduced and predictable to a degree of certainty heretofore unattainable. In addition, by eliminating the statistical nature of the acquisition process, lock-up-time becomes a function of controllable system parameters, such as bandwidth, gain and circuit time constants.
