THEORY:
The phase detector compares the input frequency and the VCO and generates a dc voltage that is proportional to the
phase detector difference between the two frequencies. Depending on the analog or digital phase detector used, the PLL
is either called an analog or digital type respectively. For simplicity, digital phase detectors are used. Examples of digital
phase detectors are ExclusiveOR phase detector and Edge triggered phase detector.
EX-OR phase detector
The exclusiveOR phase detector uses an exclusiveOR gate such as CMOS type IC 4070. The EX-OR phase detector is
preferred when both the inputs are square waves. The output of the EX-OR gate is high only when fin and fout are applied
at EX-OR inputs and the output is the difference between the two inputs. In the waveforms shown below fin is lagging fout
by some phase shift where the output is the phase difference between the two signals. These two square waves will be the
outputs of the op-amp. R and C will create a phase difference between the inputs of the op-amp. The output of these opamps will be square waves having some phase difference.
