Phase-locked-loop (PLL) frequency synthesizers are signal sources often employed in many types of electronic equipment. They show up as clock sources in high-frequency instruments and as local ...

An important task for a digital communications receiver is to remove any frequency/phase offsets that might exist between the transmitter and receiver oscillators. Designers typically implement a ...

Using a unique hybrid assembly design, the SPD1101-11 (low drive), SPD1102-111 (medium drive), and SPD1103-111 (high drive) surface-mount sampling phase detectors are said to improve throughput and ...

Optical frequency comb synthesizers have represented a revolutionary approach to frequency metrology, providing a grid of frequency references for any laser emitting within their spectral coverage.

The phase-locked loop (PLL) has become one of the most versatile tools in the communication sector. PLLs are at the heart of circuits and devices ranging from clock recovery blocks in data ...

Scientists working at CERN have started tests of a new neutrino detector prototype that uses a promising technology called “dual phase.” Advances in subatomic physics heavily depend on ingenuity and ...
