Random generator with phase detector

Abstract

The application concerns a phase detector (DF) for a random generator and a method for regulating the operation of the phase detector, constructed from a flip-flop (P), whose inputs and output (D, C, Q) constitute the inputs and output of the phase detector (i1-DF, i2-DF, o-DF). The essence of the phase detector is a special flip-flop design with balancing elements in both the master and slave stages and a series of inputs (lo1M, lo2M, lo1S, lo2S) enabling control of the flip-flop's operation, which is controlled by a compensation and regulation circuit (UKR), also connected to the flip-flop's inputs and output (D, C, Q).
