Fractional-N synthesizer and method of synchronization of the output phase

摘要

A fractional-N synthesizer and method of phase synchronizing the output signal with the input reference signal in a fractional-N synthesizer by generating a synchronization pulse at integer multiples of periods of the input reference signal and gating the synchronization pulse to re-initialize the interpolator in the fractional-N synthesizer to synchronize the phase of the output signal with the input reference signal.
