Industry:Aerospace
A circuitry in telecommunications technology that generates an output signal whose phase is related to the phase of the input "reference" signal. It is an electronic circuit consisting of a variable frequency oscillator and a phase detector that compares the phase of the signal derived from the oscillator to an input signal.
Industry:Aerospace
