Product Description This book is the third edition and is intended for the reader who wishes to gain a solid understanding of PLL frequency synthesizers. There are other applications and implementations for the PLL, for which this book is not intended. This exclusive focus on current technology and frequency synthesizer applicaiotns allows the reader to develop a much better understanding of these concepts. This book takes a uniquea approach to the study of the phased lock loop in frequency sunthesizer applications by using the rare combination of rigorous mathematical derivation and actual measured results. Only when these two things are agreement can one claim to really understand the system. About the Author Dean Banerjee currently works for National Semiconductor with PLLs and PLL related products. He has master's degrees in Electrical Engineering and Applied Mathematics.
