ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a single phase-locked loop (50, 350) providing tuning over a very large bandwidth for use in wide band carrier tracking and clock recovery systems. In a first embodiment, a DC signal is formed representative of a phase difference between an input signal changing with time and a return signal. The DC signal is applied to a narrow band voltage controlled oscillator (68) which converts the DC signal back to an AC signal. The AC signal is level shifted to form a clocking pulse for an accumulator (80) of a direct digital synthesizer (72). A digital command word is also applied to tyhe accumulator (80), such that the digital command word represents a coarse tuning of the input frequency. The clocking pulse from the narrow band VCO (68) supplies a fine tuning of the input frequency.
