Abstract

A phase detector (72), including multiple edge detectors (144, 146, 148), is provided for correction of any phase or frequency errors of a synchronous delay line clock generator (10). The edged detectors (144, 146, 148) provide an override of any corrective action by the rest of the phase detector to the synchronous delay line output, notwithstanding any phase error of less than 360°, if the phase position of the delay line output signal is off by an integral multiple of 360°. Taps (TAP 2, TAP 9, TAP 14) from daisy-chained or series-connected delay line elements (20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46, 48, 50) are provided to the phase detector (72). Each edge detector (144, 146, 148) compares the edge produced by a respective such tap against either one division of a divided clock signal or else the result of a previous such comparison. Apparatus and method are provided for saving a control signal for a signal-controlled system. The control signal is provided to a multiplexer (190), which normally outputs that control signal. That output is digitized and stored by a storage device (192) which produces a corresponding analog signal (VRLAD) as the other input to that multiplexer (190). A comparator (200) receives and compares the multiplexer (190) output and the analog signal (VRLAD). The comparator (200) thereby produces a signal (UP) to increment or decrement the stored signal.
