71. The Logic gate that works similar to a phase detector is:

a) AND gate
b) OR gate
c) XOR gate
d) NOT gate

Answer: c

2 input XOR gate works similar to the Phase detector.

 

72. What is the input at the phase detector?

a) V1(t) – V2(t)
b) Phase(V1) + Phase(V2)
c) Phase(V1) – Phase(V2)
d) V1(t) + V2(t)

Answer: c

The input at the phase detector is Phase(V1) – Phase(V2).

The phase detector is used to detect the phase difference between the input AC voltage phase and the estimated one.

 

73. The aligning of output phase of a voltage controlled oscillator with reference is called:

a) Phase compensation
b) Phase alignment
c) Phase Locking
d) Phase detecting

Answer: c

The aligning of the output phase of a voltage-controlled oscillator with reference is called Phase Locking.

 

74. What is the function of LPF in the following block diagram?

a) Suppress high-frequency components of VCO output and present low-frequency AC signal to PD
b) Suppress high-frequency components of PD output and present low-frequency AC signal to VCO
c) Suppress high-frequency components of PD output and present DC signal to VCO
d) None of the mentioned

Answer: c

The function of LPF in PLL is to suppress high-frequency components of PD output and present DC signal to VCO.

 

75. Instead of Phase detection, if a Frequency detector is used the drawback PLL would face is:

a) Finite difference between input and output frequency
b) Equality cannot be established if PLL compared input and output frequency rather than pulses
c) Error between Vin and Vout cannot be removed
d) All of the mentioned

Answer: d

Instead of Phase detection, if a Frequency detector is used the drawback PLL would face is

  • Finite difference between input and output frequency
  • Equality cannot be established if PLL compared input and output frequency rather than pulses
  • The error between Vin and Vout cannot be removed

 

76. If the input of type 1 PLL is a frequency step of Δw at t = 0, the change in phase at t = infinity is:

a) Δw
b) Δw/Kpd
c) Δw/Kpd.Kvco
d) None of the mentioned

Answer: c

If the input of type 1 PLL is a frequency step of Δw at t = 0, the change in phase at t = infinity is Δw/Kpd.Kvco

 

77. If a high pass filter is used instead of a low pass filter in the PLL the response of the PLL would be:

a) Output Voltage is not a square wave
b) Output Voltage contains many high-frequency waves
c) VCO will be unstable due to variations in control voltage
d) All of the mentioned

Answer: b

If a high pass filter is used instead of a low pass filter in the PLL the response of the PLL would be output Voltage contains many high-frequency waves

 

78. Number of poles in Type 1 PLL is:

a) 0
b) 1
c) 2
d) None of the mentioned

Answer: c

The Number of poles in Type 1 PLL is 2

 

79. The transfer function of PD is :

a) Constant
b) Varies with frequency
c) Varies with voltage
d) None of the Mentioned

Answer: a

The proportional derivative (PD) controller produces an output, which is the combination of the outputs of proportional and derivative controllers. Therefore, the transfer function of PD is Constant.
