ABSTRACT:
A method and circuit for quickly adjusting the frequency of a phase lock loop controlled oscillator to match a reference frequency signal by starting the reference frequency signal at essentially zero initial phase coincident with a zero crossing of the oscillator output. The reference frequency signal is provided by dividing a higher source frequency signal a predetermined amount. Upon receipt of an initialization signal the divider and the phase lock loop are inhibited. Upon the occurrance of a zero crossing the divider and loop are enabled so that the reference signal starts at zero phase within a predetermined period following the zero crossing, and the loop thereafter adjusts the oscillator frequency.
