PRODUCTION DATA
Both PLL1 and PLL2 support digital lock detect. Digital lock detect compares the phase between the reference path (R) and the feedback path (N) of the PLL. When the time error, which is phase error, between the two signals is less than a specified window size (ε) a lock detect count increments. When the lock detect count reaches a user specified value, PLL1_DLD_CNT or PLL2_DLD_CNT, lock detect is asserted true. Once digital lock detect is true, a single phase comparison outside the specified window will cause digital lock detect to be asserted false. This is illustrated in Figure 8-8.
This incremental lock detect count feature functions as a digital filter to ensure that lock detect is not asserted for only a brief time when the phases of R and N are within the specified tolerance for only a brief time during initial phase lock.
See Digital Lock Detect Frequency AccuracyDigital Lock Detect Frequency Accuracy for more detailed information on programming the registers to achieve a specified frequency accuracy in ppm with lock detect.
The digital lock detect signal can be monitored on the Status_LD1 or Status_LD2 pin. The pin may be programmed to output the status of lock detect for PLL1, PLL2, or both PLL1 and PLL2.
