Synopsis

Phase-locked loops (PLLs) are so widely used today - in TV and FM receivers, motor speed controls, modulators, demodulators, frequency synthesizers, and more - that this handbook is a must-have for all electronic circuit designers. Fully revised and updated, this second edition builds on previous success by including a special design program disk that enables designers to simulate a wide spectrum of PLLs and achieve a high level of advance performance assurance. It covers the theory, design, and real-world applications of all four types of PLLs: linear (LPLL); digital (DPLL), which actually is an analog/digital hybrid; all-digital (ADPLL); and the software PLL (SPLL). A special convenience feature is a chart detailing available PLL ICs from American, European, and Japanese sources. For this user-friendly guidebook the author also developed greatly simplified design equations that give the key parameters of every PLL type in a very compact form. A number of case studies based on the simulation program included on disk enable the reader to walk easily through the principles of PLLs and see how they work in particular designs without having to build costly bread boards. With its comprehensive design and application information about every type of PLL, this is an indispensable guide for engineers dealing with the design of PLL circuits or software packages for SPLLs. It is also a valuable textbook for students seeking to enter the lucrative PLL field.

CD-ROM enables you to design entire PLL systems

THE UNDISPUTED LEADING REFERENCE IN PLL DESIGN – UPDATED, EXPANDED, AND MORE VALUABLE THAN EVER!

NEW TO THIS EDITION
* CD-ROM containing:

• User-friendly PLL software enabling users to design entire PLL systems
• Stability analysis
• Bode diagrams

* Completely new collection of sample communications applications
* New chapters on PLL frequency synthesizers and computer-aided design of PLLS

Best is still the best! Here is the new fifth edition of the hands-down leader in phase-locked loop design books and perhaps the most-used PLL reference on circuit designers’ desks around the world.

Considered required reading for electronic circuit designers and technicians as well as anyone else interested in creating and applying the components that lock in frequencies used for an ever-expanding list of applications, Phase Locked Loops, Fifth Edition, helps you to:
* Design PLL systems up to level 5
* Understand both theory and application for all types of PLL design
* Solve problems in communications, frequency synthesis, motor speed control, and much more
* Create sophisticated designs in amateur radio, citizen’s band, and satellite communications
* Learn from more than 100 illustrations
* Test your design with simulation software

Written by a world-renowned authority with experience enough to know the questions you would ask, Phase Locked Loops remains the yardstick by which all other “circuit references” are measured.
