Method and apparatus for simplified tuning of a two-point modulated PLL

摘要

A method and apparatus are disclosed for tuning a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) having two point modulation used in a phase lock loop modulation system. A loop correction voltage applied to a first modulation input of the VCO when a first modulation signal, e.g., +1, is applied to a second modulation input of the VCO is compared to a loop correction voltage applied to the first modulation input when a second modulation signal, e.g., −1, is applied to the second modulation input of the VCO. The comparison produces a correction signal used to adjust the signal level of at least one of the signals, e.g., the second modulation input signal, applied to the two modulation inputs of the VCO.
