Course Objective

Students are able to learn that what a Phase Locked Loop circuit is and to understand a Phase Locked Loop circuit's function in an electronic system.
The main differences between Phase Locked Loop circuits namely analog, digital and software. Students are able to know analysis and application of the different PLL circuits.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   The students are expected to learn what phaselock is and history of PLL circuits
2   The students are expected to understand the different phase detector circuits, characteristics, pros and cons in a phase locked loop circuit
3   The students are expected to learn other loop elements such that Voltage Controlled Oscillator and role of filters in a PLL circuit
4   The students are expected to analyse a Phase Locked loop circuit ( both analog and digital) in frequency domain.
5   The students are expected to understand software Phase Locked Loop systems
6   The students are expected to understand working mechanism of PLL's in different applications for example Frequency Synthesizer, Demodulation and phase shifters
