Abstract
The invention concerns an apparatus comprising an analog circuit and a digital circuit. The analog circuit may be configured to generate an enable signal in response to (i) a comparison of a width of an up pulse and a pre-determined width and (ii) a comparison of a width of a down pulse and the pre-determined width. The up pulse and the down pulse may be generated in response to a comparison of a feedback signal and a reference signal. The enable signal may be active when both the comparisons are within a pre-determined threshold. The digital circuit may be configured to generate an output signal representing a lock status between (i) the feedback signal and (ii) the reference signal. The lock status may be determined (a) during a decision window based on a number of pulses of the reference signal and (b) when the enable signal is active.
