Summary: | The analysis of the mixed analogue and digital structure of charge-pump
phase-locked loops (CP-PLL) is a challenge in modelling and simulation. In
most cases the system is designed and characterized using its continuous
linear model or its discrete linear model neglecting its non-linear switching
behaviour. I.e., the time-varying model is approximated by a time-invariant
representation using its average dynamics. Depending on what kind of phase
detector is used, the scopes of validity of these approximations are
different. Here, a preeminent characterization and simulation technique based
on the systems event-driven feature is presented, merging the logical and
analogue inherent characteristics of the system. In particular, the
high-grade non-linear locking process and the dead-zone are analyzed. |
