Some embodiments include apparatuses and methods using the apparatuses. Some of the apparatuses include a phase frequency detector to generate output information having a value based on a relationship between a first clock signal and a second clock signal, a memory element to store the values of the output information, a digital control oscillator to generate the second clock signal having a phase and frequency based on a digital code, the digital code having a value based on control information, and circuitry to generate the control information based on conditions determined at least from the values stored in the memory element.
