The invention discloses a delay-locked loop circuit with input means for a signal that is to be delayed, the input means comprising means for splitting the input signal into a first and a second branch. The signal in the first branch is connected to a component for delaying the signal, and the signal in the second branch is used as a non-delayed reference for the delay caused by the delay component in the first branch. The delay component is a passive tunable delay line, and the circuit comprises tuning means for the tunable delay line, the tuning means being affected by said reference signal, and the first branch comprises output means for outputting a delayed signal with a chosen phase delay. Suitably, the delay component is continuously tunable, for example a tunable ferroelectric delay line.

The invention discloses a tuneable resonator (100, 200, 300, 500, 600, 700, 900) with a substrate layer (140, 260, 360, 560, 660, 960), which substrate layer supports a structure with a first electrode (130, 240, 350, 550, 650). In connection to the first electrode there is arranged a layer (120, 230, 330, 530, 630, 930) of a material which can be brought to resonate. The resonator further comprises a second electrode (110, 210, 310, 510, 610, 710, 910) arranged in connection to said material which can be brought to resonate, and the material which can be brought to resonate is a ferroelectric material. The ferroelectric material is brought into resonance by applying an electrical field (DC, AC) between the first and the second electrode, the tuning being achieved by varying the electrical field.

A device is provided for multiplying the pulse frequency of a pulse train signal. The device includes input means for the signal and means for accessing the signal at points with a predetermined phase difference between them. The device additionally comprises means at a first level for combining accessed signal pairs, with one and the same phase distance within all the combined pairs, the output from each first level combining means being a pulse train. The device additionally comprises combining means at a second level for combining the pulse trains from the first level, and the combining means at the first level are such that the pulses in their output pulse trains have rise flanks which always coincide with the rise flank of the first signal in the combined accessed signal pairs, and fall flanks which always coincide with the fall flanks of the second signal in said pair.
