The block diagram shown in Fig.3.32 shows a FSK demodulator using PLL. The PLL is designed to remain in lock, with the FSK signal for both the frequencies f and f,, Then the VCO control voltage fed to comparator is given by Ach (3.103) (3.104) and V2 The difference between the two control voltage level is (3.105) av, Lod The two inputs V,, and Vp are applied to comparator.

The filtered error voltage which controls the VCO and maintain lock with the input signal s the demodulated FM output. The control vol tage of vCO isa linear function of the instanceous frequency deviation, Hence, the FM signal is demodulated, almost without any distortion. The VCO transter characteristics determine the linearity of the demodulated output. Since, VCO used in IC PLL is highly linear, it is possible to realize highly linear FM demodulators. 7 Phase |_,J towpass|_J nor H ‘ampli FMsignar [ steetor fiter a veo =r. { Vo Fig.3.33 PLL as a FM detector 3.15 FREQUENCY SYNTHESIZER AND CLOCK SYNCHRONIZATION - The PLL can be used as basis for frequency synthesizer that can produce a precise series of frequencies that are derived from a stable crystal controlled oscillator.
