Doepfer A-196 PLL 4ms-company Excellent for acoustic and electricModule A 196 contains a so called phase locked loop (PLL). The basic PLL system is shown in the sketch at the bottom of this page. A PLL consists of three parts: voltage controlled oscillator (VCO), phase comparator (PC), and low pass filter (LPF). All parts are normally connected to form a closed loop frequency feedback system. This is how a PLL works: The output of the internal VCO (linear CV control, rectangle output) is compared with an external
