US Patent 10044359 Injection locked phase locked loop

An injection locked phase locked loop includes an injection locked oscillator configured to generate an oscillation signal according to an injection signal and to generate a replica signal by replicating the oscillation signal when the injection signal is deactivated; a phase controller configured to generate a phase control signal according to a phase error signal; and an error detector configured to generate the phase error signal by comparing a phase of the oscillation signal and a phase of the replica signal, and to control a phase difference between the oscillation signal and the replica signal according to the phase control signal.
