phase-locked loop

See PLL.


phase-locked loop [′fāz ¦läkt ′lüp]
(electronics)
A circuit that consists essentially of a phase detector which compares the frequency of a voltage-controlled oscillator with that of an incoming carrier signal or reference-frequency generator; the output of the phase detector, after passing through a loop filter, is fed back to the voltage-controlled oscillator to keep it exactly in phase with the incoming or reference frequency. Abbreviated PLL.

Elimination of internal Phase-Lock Loop (PLL) to dramatically reduce current consumption and eliminate the need for an external clock;
In addition, all devices feature an integrated voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) and phase-lock loop (PLL), as well as an innovative chip design that eliminates channel crosstalk and performs significantly better than the SMPTE jitter specification.
