L'invention concerne les oscillateurs à nanorésonateurs ou oscillateurs NEMS (de l'anglais "nanoelectromechanical systems", c'est-à-dire systèmes nano-électromécaniques). On prévoit un circuit de mesure de la fréquence d'oscillation d'un résonateur (NMS), comportant une boucle d'asservissement de phase avec un oscillateur à fréquence contrôlée (VCO) et un comparateur de phase (CMPH). Le résonateur comporte une entrée d'excitation de la vibration et une entrée de polarisation dynamique (de jauges de contrainte). L'oscillateur à fréquence contrôlée applique une fréquence de polarisation f1 à l'entrée de polarisation. Un générateur de fréquence (GEN) fournit une fréquence intermédiaire fixe FI ; un mélangeur (MLG) reçoit les fréquences f1 et FI pour produire une fréquence d'excitation f0 somme ou différence de f1 et FI. Le comparateur de phase reçoit la fréquence FI et le signal de sortie du résonateur et produit un signal de commande à destination de l'oscillateur à fréquence contrôlée, asservissant indirectement la fréquence d'oscillation sur la fréquence de résonance du résonateur.

The present invention relates to methods and devices for such control and supervision of an oscillator signal from a controllable oscillator that is done mainly to control the frequency variation of the oscillator signal. According to the invention, the controllable oscillator is controlled by a controlling voltage, which in turn is modified by a correction signal, generated in a control loop. A time discrete representation of a secondary phase is generated in the control loop, the secondary phase corresponding to a frequency being the difference between the frequency of the oscillator signal and a constant frequency. A time discrete approximation signal is generated in dependence of the time discrete representation of the secondary phase. A time discrete error signal is generated in dependence of the time discrete approximation signal, the time discrete error signal indicating the difference between the actual frequency slope of the oscillator signal and a desired frequency slope. The correction signal is generated in dependence of the time discrete error signal. The control loop can also be adaptive, meaning that data from one control sequence is being used in a later control sequence.

The invention comprises a weather radar system in which a magnetron transmitter is controlled in frequency by injecting therein a low power locking signal from a stable frequency source. Frequency lock between the source and the magnetron is maintained without requiring injection signals of excessive power by an automatic frequency control (AFC). The AFC determines the frequency and phase error between the injection signal and the magnetron output and adjusts the frequency of the source so as always to be within a narrow band of frequencies centered about the natural frequency of the magnetron. Over the long term, therefore, the frequency of the source will vary by an amount equal to the change in the natural frequency of the magnetron occurring during that time. Over the short term, however, the difference in frequency between the injection signal and the magnetron output is zero, while the phase difference is less than 90 DEG . The frequency source controlling the magnetron also serves as a frequency source for generating the several local oscillator frequencies required by the system receiver. Thus, the pulse to pulse transmitted signals, return signals and receiver i.f. signals all possess a high degree of phase coherence, readily permitting detection and determination of the doppler frequencies contained in the return signals.

A dental handpiece is disclosed with a transducer assembly for holding a work tool which is caused to vibrate at substantially a resonant frequency by a variable frequency oscillator (20). The oscillator (20) sweeps through a spectrum of frequencies under control of oscillator control means (24). A maximum in the current flow through the transducer assembly occurs at a resonant frequency and is detected by maximum detecting means (22) which then generates a latch signal to stop the oscillator at substantially that resonant frequency. Hence the oscillator is correlated to the resonant frequency of the assembly, and subsequent changes in the loading conditions on the assembly do not affect the oscillator frequency.

摘要:
A floating DC-offset circuit for a phase detector. The circuit may provide a floating DC-offset to the phase detector, or to the voltage-controlled oscillator of the phase-locked loop. The circuit includes a voltage comparator, clock, digital resistor, and offset line to a DC-offset branch of the phase detector. The voltage comparator detects when the voltage at the output of the loop filter of the phase-locked loop has gone outside of a designated range, and activates the clock when the voltage is outside the designated range. The clock emits impulses that are counted by the digital resistor. The digital resistor shifts DC-offset at the DC-offset branch of the phase detector. The new DC-offset level is maintained once the loop filter output voltage has returned within the designated range. In an alternate embodiment, the DC-offset branch is connected to rough-tuning input of a wide-tuned voltage-controlled oscillator.
