  • Frequency controlled oscillator utilizing an U/D counter in the feedback
    Patent number: 4654604
    Abstract: A frequency controlled oscillator arranged to be fabricated in integrated circuit form including a primary frequency controlled oscillator and a secondary frequency controlled oscillator with a counter arranged to periodically count pulses of the oscillation frequency of the secondary frequency controlled oscillator and to produce a first output signal if the count is less than a predetermined value and to produce a second output signal if the count is greater than a predetermined value, and control means providing a bias control signal in dependence on the output signals of the counter for tuning the oscillation frequency of both the secondary frequency controlled oscillator and the primary frequency controlled oscillator.
