Freq_in = 1MHz
Freq_out = 1MHz
Cut Off Freq = 0.5MHz
Ph_in = 0
VCO Gain = 0.5MHz/V
After around 8u sec output frequency is getting blocked and steady state error is approx. 0.
Note: Output is 90deg out of phase with respect to input due the kind of phase detector used i.e.
a multiplier which leads to quadrature shift.
Lets now look at the effect of changing a few parameters:
a) Filter Cut Off Frequency
i) Increasing fc = 0.7MHz
It reaches steady state faster i.e. system responds faster but the price we pay for faster lock
time is oscillations in error which translate to phase noise. Phase noise means that the output
tune isnt pure.
c) VCO Gain
i) Increasing KVCO = 0.8MHz/V
Transients may take a little bit longer and there will be more oscillations i.e. more phase noise. It
starts to get more unstable.
Increasing Freq_in too much might lead to neither frequency locking nor phase locking. This is
because its outside PLL capture range. Freq_in = 1.3MHz
Decreasing Freq_in too much might lead to neither frequency locking nor phase locking. This is
because its outside PLL capture range. Freq_in = 0.8MHz
Note that if we keep on increasing VCO gain, the system will finally get unstable due to poor
phase margin and output wont lock.
iv) Increasing Freq_in = 1.1MHz & Decreasing K VCO = 0.1MHz/V
Output wont settle i.e. it wont lock as there is not sufficient gain from VCO leading to
insufficient DC voltage to drive VCO towards lock.
So, to lock both phase and frequency: We make Type1 PLL to Type2 PLL by adding a PI-Controller.
