ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for generating an output signal in dependence on a phase difference between two periodic signals. The present invention is particularly useful in phase locked loops and delay locked loops, in which a controllable oscillator or a controllable delay device is controlled on the basis of the phase difference determined by means of phase detection, in such a way that a control signal can be obtained, the phase lag or frequency of which has a firm relationship to the reference signal.
