Abstract

See full text

An example apparatus includes a phase detector, a digital discriminator, and a logic circuit. A status signal of the phase detector is at least partially based on a phase relationship between a reference clock and a feedback clock, the feedback clock generated by a clock tracking circuit to track the reference clock. The digital discriminator may sample the status signal of the phase detector. The logic circuit may determine a locked status of the clock tracking circuit at least partially based on samples of the status signal of the phase detector.
