Abstract: Phase-locked loop (for signals having rectangular waveforms, comprising, in series, a phase detector, a control signal generator circuit having a loop filter, a controlled oscillator and an auxiliary circuit. The detector recieves a reference signal having a reference frequency from a reference source as first input signal. The detector recieves second and third input signals from the auxiliary circuit. The reference signal and the second input signal are compared by a first logic combination function to deliver a second combination signal. The second and third input signals are compared by a second logic combination function to deliver a second combination signal.
