Be described in detail below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram that the present invention improves crystal oscillator long-term stability device, and it comprises constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1, frequency divider 2, phase discriminator 3, reference voltage source 4 and comparator 5; Constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1 is connected with the input of frequency divider 2, and the input of phase discriminator 3 is connected with the output of frequency divider 2, and phase discriminator 3 receives the fractional frequency signal that frequency divider 2 transmits; The reverse input end of comparator 5 is connected output and the reference voltage source 4 of phase discriminator 3 respectively with input in the same way, and the output of comparator 5 connects the voltage-controlled voltage end of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1.
The operation principle of raising crystal oscillator long-term stability device of the present invention: frequency divider 2 pairs of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1 output frequencies have the frequency division of different frequency dividing ratio, and export the first fractional frequency signal and the second fractional frequency signal to phase discriminator 3; Phase discriminator 3 exports corresponding discriminating voltage to comparator 5 according to the first fractional frequency signal to the difference on the frequency of the second fractional frequency signal; The discriminating voltage that the reference voltage of comparator 5 benchmark voltage source 4 and phase discriminator 3 export also exports the voltage-controlled voltage end of corresponding error voltage to constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1, to regulate the output frequency of described constant-temperature crystal oscillator.

Fig. 3 is the transfer function block diagram of apparatus of the present invention first embodiment, wherein, and V reffor the reference voltage that reference voltage source 4 provides, V dfor the discriminating voltage that phase discriminator 3 exports, V efor the error voltage that comparator 5 exports, V tfor tuning voltage relevant to error voltage after filter 6 filtering, K is the gain amplifier of comparator 5, the transfer function that F (S) is filter 6, f outfor the output frequency of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1, θ 0for the output phase place of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1, θ 1and θ 2the frequency dividing ratio being respectively frequency divider 2 output is the phase place of the fractional frequency signal of M and N.
Theoretical according to the Laplace transform of classical phase-locked loop, there is following relation.
θ 0=K 0*V t(s)/s (1)
V t(s)=K*F(s)*V e(s) (2)
V e(s)=V ref(s)-V d(s) (3)
V d(s)=K d*(θ 1(s)-θ 2(s))=K d0(s)*(1/M-1/N) (4)
Wherein, K 0for the gain factor of constant-temperature crystal oscillator, K dfor the gain of phase discriminator frequency discrimination.
Therefore, open-loop transfer function G (s) obtained at the input of comparator 5 is:
G(s)=V d(s)/V e(s)=[K d*(1/M-1/N)*K 0*K*F(s)]/s (5)
According to above-mentioned equation, qualitative analysis is carried out to the closed loop transfer function, of phase lock circuitry, wherein, work as f outduring increase, be the integration of frequency according to mathematical relationship phase place, then θ 0increase; Due to θ 0increase, according to equation 4, V dincrease; Due to V dincrease, according to equation 3, V ereduce; Due to V ereduce, according to equation 2, V treduce; Due to V treduce, according to the voltage-controlled voltage end voltage of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1 and the positive correlation of its output frequency, f outreduce.
In like manner, f is worked as outduring reduction, the result after closed loop transfer function, transmission is f outincrease.So the phase-locked loop of alien frequencies phase lock circuitry of the present invention has negative feedback, simultaneously due to the negative feedback of phase-locked loop, the output frequency of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1 just only and V refrelevant, thus reach f outthe object of Selfstabilizing.
When the element in alien frequencies phase lock circuitry of the present invention is determined, i.e. K 0, K d, the value of K is all determined, only needs the value selecting M and N, can provide the long-term stability of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1.Therefore, alien frequencies phase lock circuitry structure of the present invention is simple, selects suitable element as required, can reduce costs to a certain extent.
Fig. 4 is the schematic diagram of apparatus of the present invention second embodiment, and the present embodiment increases microprocessor 7, switch 8, ad/da converter 9 on the basis of the first embodiment, to realize the timing access of phase lock circuitry and to remove.
Wherein, the I/O port of microprocessor 7 is corresponding with the FPDP of ad/da converter 9 to be connected, the I/O port of the D11 ~ D15 of microprocessor 7 is connected with the output of filter 6 by the AD circuit of ad/da converter 9, and the I/O port of the D21 ~ D25 of microprocessor 7 is connected with an input of switch 8 by the DA circuit of ad/da converter 9; The control end of switch 8 is connected with microprocessor 7, and another input of switch 8 is connected with the output of filter 6, and the output of switch 8 is connected with the voltage-controlled voltage end of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1; With make microprocessor 7 periodically control switch 8 switch phase lock circuitry access and withdraw from.Thus reduce alien frequencies phase lock circuitry to the impact of making an uproar mutually of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1.
Concrete, microprocessor 7 starts according to setting-up time timing, and phase lock circuitry is access state, and the output of filter 6 is connected with the voltage-controlled voltage end of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1, realizes the regulation and control of error voltage to the output frequency of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1.After self-control completes, microprocessor 7 reads this tuning voltage V by the AD circuit of ad/da converter 9 tand store, then export V by the DA circuit of ad/da converter 9 o(V o=V t) keep the voltage-controlled voltage end of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1 to be in calibration after state, when microprocessor 7 reach setting-up time time, microprocessor 7 exports the control end that controls signal to switch 8, switch 8 state switches, the DA circuit of ad/da converter 9 is connected with the voltage-controlled voltage end of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1, removes by phase-locked loop circuit.Microprocessor 7 in the present embodiment can adopt ARM9 series microprocessor.
Phase discriminator 3 in the present invention can adopt ADF4002, and frequency divider 2 can be integer frequency divider, also can be decimal frequency divider or DDS (direct digital synthesis technique) device etc.Comparator 5 can adopt OP184.Filter 6 can adopt second-order low-pass filter.
Wherein, usually because phase discriminator 3 can exist dead band, namely when the difference in the equivalent phase demodulation cycle of two input signals is less than dead band, phase discriminator 3 will lose the output of this part phase discriminating pulse, causes frequency difference or the difference information that intactly can not react input signal.
As shown in Figure 5, in alien frequencies phase demodulation process, the frequency of the first fractional frequency signal and the second fractional frequency signal is f 1and f 2, and f 1≠ f 2, f 1=A*f c, f 2=B*f c, f cfor f 1and f 2greatest common factor (G.C.F.) frequency, f 0=A*B*f c, T 0=1/A*B*f c, f 0for equivalent phase demodulation frequency, T 0for the equivalent phase demodulation cycle.
The process that apparatus of the present invention lock at alien frequencies can make f 1* B=f 2* A equation is set up, i.e. f 1and f 2the equivalent phase demodulation cycle equal and equal T 0, the phase demodulation voltage V that phase discriminator 3 exports dbe a fixing AC wave shape, after device 6, obtain a fixing tuning voltage V after filtering t.
If in locking process, f 1* B=f 2* A equation is false, equivalent phase demodulation frequency f 0aC wave shape can change, tuning voltage V tsize also correspondingly change the output frequency size of regulating thermostatic crystal oscillator 1, make f 1* B=f 2* A equation is set up, and completes alien frequencies locking; And when phase demodulation, due to the equivalent phase demodulation cycle T of the first fractional frequency signal and the second fractional frequency signal 01and T 02closely, situation that rising edge arrives simultaneously can be there is and make phase discriminator 3 in the time range in dead band, there is no the output of phase demodulation voltage, causing the output frequency error of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1.
Therefore, for ensureing that phase discriminator 3 can react the minor variations of the difference on the frequency of the first fractional frequency signal and the second fractional frequency signal, the dead band of phase discriminator 3 should be less than the difference in the equivalent phase demodulation cycle of the first fractional frequency signal and the second fractional frequency signal all the time.Thus ensure the accuracy of the discriminating voltage that phase discriminator 3 exports.
Based on the inventive concept identical with device of the present invention, the present invention also provides a kind of method utilizing apparatus of the present invention to improve crystal oscillator long-term stability, and embodiment see the embodiment of device of the present invention, can repeat no more herein.
In composition graphs 1, the present invention improves the general principle figure of crystal oscillator long-term stability device, the invention provides a kind of method utilizing apparatus of the present invention to improve crystal oscillator long-term stability to be:

As Fig. 7, wherein, at comparator 5 by comparing discriminating voltage V dand reference voltage V refafter, and correspondingly output error signal voltage V e, its process is for passing through reference voltage V refby discriminating voltage V dsawtooth waveform move down U mvoltage, and the error voltage V obtained etake no-voltage as the periodically variable sawtooth waveform of minimum voltage, i.e. V e=V d-V ref=V d-U m; Therefore, error voltage V ealso be one group of sawtooth waveform in mechanical periodicity.
In conjunction with the first embodiment of the present invention, to error voltage V between the output and the voltage-controlled voltage end of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1 of comparator 5 ecarry out filtering, error voltage V etuning voltage V is obtained after filtering after device 6 t, wherein, tuning voltage V tfor error voltage V ethe more level and smooth direct voltage obtained after filtering radio-frequency component and error component, the size of this voltage and V ecycle is relevant with peak value, is the equal of error voltage V ethe effect of effective value voltage.
Further, when phase lock circuitry does not lock completely, f 1and f 2not the proportionate relationship in strict accordance with setting, small phase deviation can be there is, then can make error voltage V ecycle and peak value change, thus pass through V tthe output frequency controlling constant-temperature crystal oscillator is tending towards locking; And when after phase lock circuitry locking, system just forms negative feedback loop, f 1and f 2strict satisfied set proportionate relationship, the output frequency of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1 is by error voltage V tstable control, is equivalent to the Frequency Locking of the output of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1 in reference voltage V refon, therefore, can select to have reference voltage source 4 compared with high stability to ensure the long-term stability of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1.
The long-term stability of accurate reference voltage source is generally tens to hundreds of PPM/, can accomplish several PPM/ preferably, for the common reference voltage source of 50PPM/, suppose reference voltage V reffor 2V, its annual aging fluctuation voltage is: 2*50*10 -6* 10 3=0.1V, wherein 10 3for the gain amplifier of comparator 5; Constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1 is in the tuning range of 12V, and its frequency tuning range is 2PPM; Due to reference voltage V refthe constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1 output frequency drift brought is 2*0.1/12=0.02PPM/, reaches 10 -8/ year (10 -11/ sky) long-term stability of magnitude.
Improve in the present invention in the method for crystal oscillator long-term stability, if select have compared with high stability reference voltage source 4 and select suitable loop parameter, just can improve the long-term stability of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1.
In conjunction with the second embodiment of the present invention, the present invention improves in the method for crystal oscillator long-term stability, by the switching of microprocessor 7 periodically control switch 8, realizes the access of phase-locked loop or removes, when removing phase-locked loop, keep the tuning voltage V removing phase-locked loop eve t, make the output frequency of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1 keep short-term stability, reduce alien frequencies phase lock circuitry to the impact of making an uproar mutually of constant-temperature crystal oscillator 1 simultaneously; When accessing phase-locked loop, then again produce tuning voltage V accordingly tcarry out the output frequency of regulating thermostatic crystal oscillator 1.

Suppose that the frequency of the first fractional frequency signal and the second fractional frequency signal is respectively f 1and f 2, the corresponding cycle is t 1and t 2, according to the definition in phase discriminator 3 dead band, if dead band is 1ps, so exist | t 1-t 2| during≤1ps, phase discriminator will can not respond frequency difference or difference change less than reaction.
Because minimum detected frequency difference is determined by phase discriminator dead band, so have:
Δ f = f 1 - f 2 = 1 t 1 - 1 t 2 = t 2 - t 1 t 1 * t 2 - - - ( 6 )
△f=f 1*f 2*1*10 -12≈f 1*f 1*1*10 -12(7)

(f out+1)*(1/N-1/M)=f out*(1/N-1/M)+(1N-1/M) (11)
Wherein, f out* (1/N-1/M) is initial frequency discrimination frequency difference, the minimum frequency difference that (1/N-1/M) can have frequency discrimination to export for phase discriminator 3.If N=10 4, i.e. f 1=10KHz.According to equation (6):
1/N-1/M≥10 -4(12)
If M=X*N, then X-1>=1; I.e. X>=2; Get the minimum value of X, then M=2*10 4.
