Abstract

A device and method for synchronizing a local clock to a reference clock. The device uses a frequency acquisition loop (418) and a phase acquisition loop (420). The frequency acquisition loop delays the reference clock (REF-CLK) to produce an intermediate clock (FCLK', BCLK') which falls within the operating range of the phase acquisition loop. The phase acquisition loop then delays the intermediate clock (LOC-CLK) to produce a local clock synchronized to the reference clock. The frequency acquisition loop (418) comprises a first delay circuit (400) adapted to delay the reference clock (REF-CLK) by an adjustable delay period which is selected from a plurality of non-adjustable delay periods by a first delay controller (404). The latter preferably comprises a cross-sensing phase detector pair (504) and a control logic (506). The phase acquisition loop (420) comprises a second delay circuit (402) adapted to delay the intermediate clock (FCLK', BCLK') by an adjustable delay period by a second delay controller (406). The latter may comprise a phase detector, a charge pump and a loop filter.
