This book is a concise guide to the theory and design of phase-locked loop circuits. It is written from an engineering viewpoint, with many illustrations, block diagrams, example circuits and experimental results - many based on the author's personal experience - and use of engineering analytical methods, such as signal flow graphs and Laplace transforms.
