Phaselock Techniques

by Floyd M. Gardner and John N. Gardner

Book Overview

This second edition of Phaselock Techniques is -- as was the first -- the standard reference on the subject. Greatly expanded and largely rewritten to reflect a better understanding of the subject, the book presents much new material, some published here for the first time. Explanation of fundamentals is improved and expanded, and description of applications is greatly increased. The first portion of the book is a well-organized review of the fundamentals...

Customer Reviews

Excellent reference!

This is the original, and, in my opinion, still the best reference book on phase lock loops.

The definitive PLL design reference

Superb book. Essential reading and reference for any serious PLL designer. This updated edition does for DPLLs what the original did for analog. I haven't seen any author come close to Gardner for comprehensive, accurate treatment of these topics.

Greatly Improved Edition

I am gladly surprised to see how the author has taken the effort, not just to make a routine revision of the classic book, but to write a completely different book. Non interesting material has been removed, while new up-to-date topics have been added (for instance Charge Pump PLL), based on the own author research, and other published papers. The approach of some classic analysis has also changed. In particular the approach to the so called Loop Filter as a controller and not as a filter. In summary, a very valuable addition to PLL literature, worth to buy even by readers that own previous editions.

phaselock techniques

a detailed comprehensive coverage of all aspects of phase-locked loops. The book contains lots of paper references relating to each chapter and has many examples as well. A recommended book for research students.

Phaselock Bible!

Even this book was published about twenty years ago, it is always a great book for phaselock designers!
