Abstract

See full text

In a synthesizer system having a reference oscillator selectively operable in either a voltage-controlled or an injection-locked mode, a circuit for effecting the appropriate mode of operation. The circuit includes an analog gate coupled between the output of a crystal oscillator and the input of the reference oscillator. The analog gate is driven by a logic element responsive to a plurality of signals indicative of specific operating conditions. In particular, the circuit assures that the reference oscillator is coupled to the crystal oscillator, that is, the reference oscillator operates in the injection locked mode, while the synthesizer PLL achieves acquisition.
