An integrated high-frequency narrow-band high-resolution synthesizer

M.T. Hill, A. Cantoni

Abstract

A frequency synthesizer employing a new digital-frequency measurement method in a feedback loop is described. The synthesizer features high-frequency resolution and a high operating frequency. The mostly digital nature of the synthesizer and relaxed voltage-controlled oscillator requirements also make the synthesizer suitable for integration. Models for the synthesizer are developed and experimental results from a prototype are given.
