Abstract: A timing circuit for generating clock signals, includes an acquisition digital phase locked loop with a wide capture range for closely following an input signal with its associated disturbances. An output digital phase locked loop having a slow response relative to the acquisition phase locked loop tracks an output of the acquisition phase locked loop to generate an output signal for the timing circuit.

Abstract: A telecommunication system comprises a telecommunication network (10, 20) with a number of optionally permanent connections for subscribers who are connected to the network via an optionally permanent telecommunication connection (12). A subscriber herein has access to at least one telecommunication service in the network (10, 20) by means of a telecommunication device (11) coupled to a connection. The telecommunication device is moreover able to establish a connection with a loyalty server (21) which is coupled to the network and which is able to manage a data file (229. A points total per subscriber is at least temporarily recorded in the data file. Communication means (11, 23, 24) are provided to send the points total to the telecommunication device (11) of a subscriber.
