CD4046AF/3 - 1.5MHz CMOS Phase-Locked Loop | Harris
Артикул: CD4046AF/3 ✓ АктивенCD4046AF/3 Обзор
A phase-locked loop is a feedback-control subsystem that compares a reference signal with an adjustable oscillator signal and drives the oscillator toward phase and frequency alignment. The PLL category belongs to the broader clock-and-timing hierarchy, where phase detectors, frequency dividers, voltage-controlled oscillators, and digital timing ICs work together to produce stable or programmable clock outputs.
The CD4046AF/3 is identified as a low-power CMOS PLL with dual phase comparators. Its CMOS input and output structure suits low-power clock and control designs, while the 1.5 MHz upper operating frequency makes it appropriate for communication, instrumentation, modulation, and general-purpose frequency-processing circuits. The ceramic CDIP construction also supports use in applications where a through-hole package is preferred.
The functional architecture allows an external voltage-controlled oscillator and timing components to be connected to the IC, enabling the loop to synthesize, divide, or lock onto a reference frequency. Dual phase-comparator choices support different detection arrangements and signal-polarity requirements. Users should account for comparator type, loop bandwidth, divider arrangement, and required pull-in range when designing the surrounding feedback network.
Typical uses include FM and AM demodulation, frequency synthesis, tone decoding, clock recovery, phase-angle measurement, motor-speed control, and low-to-medium-frequency clock generation. The device can also serve as the central timing element in laboratory instruments and industrial control systems where a low-frequency reference must control an adjustable oscillator.
For a new layout, place the timing, loop-filter, and oscillator components close to the associated pins and keep high-impedance comparator nodes compact to minimize pickup. Recheck operation across temperature and supply-voltage extremes, and verify the selected external components against the required lock range. Because detailed electrical limits and the complete pin description are not published on the product listing, consult the manufacturer datasheet before finalizing timing or loop-gain calculations.
This product page consolidates the exact package information, PLL characteristics, sourcing links, comparison fields, and application guidance needed to evaluate the CD4046AF/3 for a new clock-and-timing design. It also distinguishes confirmed product characteristics from parameters that must be established from the full manufacturer datasheet.

Типичное применение
CD4046AF/3 подходит для 6 применениеs: Frequency Synthesis, Clock Synchronization, FM Demodulation, Tone Decoding and Frequency Detection, Phase-Angle Measurement, Motor Speed Control.
Frequency Synthesis
The CD4046AF/3 fits low- and medium-frequency synthesis because it provides a phase-locked-loop function with dual comparators and operation up to 1.5 MHz. An external voltage-controlled oscillator, programmable divider, and loop filter can be arranged around the IC so the output tracks a stable reference. The feedback path corrects frequency and phase error, while the loop filter establishes capture range, damping, and jitter. Designers should select comparator characteristics and external component ranges from the manufacturer application guidance, and validate acquisition over the full intended supply and temperature range.
Clock Synchronization
The CD4046AF/3 can synchronize a generated clock to an external reference by comparing the divided oscillator output with the reference signal. Its phase-locked-loop architecture is appropriate for instrumentation, communication, and industrial timing systems operating below the 1.5 MHz device limit. A dual phase-comparator arrangement provides flexibility in the detection method and loop polarity. Keep the feedback trace short, place the loop-filter components close to the device, and verify pull-in range, phase error, and steady-state jitter before using the synchronized clock as a system timebase.
FM Demodulation
For FM demodulation, the CD4046AF/3 can detect phase variation in a recovered signal and use that information to control an external voltage-controlled oscillator. The feedback loop then follows the input frequency changes and reconstructs the corresponding demodulated output. Because the device operates up to 1.5 MHz, it is suited to low- and medium-band communication or instrumentation signals rather than very high-frequency receivers. Component tolerances in the loop filter and VCO directly affect distortion and tracking bandwidth, so engineers should verify response over the intended modulation frequency and signal level.
Tone Decoding and Frequency Detection
The CD4046AF/3 is applicable to tone-decoding and frequency-detection systems that compare an incoming signal with a controllable oscillator. When the loop locks to a target tone, the phase-comparator output indicates the relationship between the reference and feedback signals, allowing the circuit to assert a detection condition. Its dual phase comparators support alternative detection arrangements, and the 1.5 MHz limit accommodates many audio-frequency and low-speed control tasks. Guard against false lock by defining the acceptance bandwidth, filtering noise from the detector input, and testing signal amplitude and frequency tolerances.
Phase-Angle Measurement
A CD4046AF/3-based phase-angle measurement circuit can compare two signals through its phase-comparator function and convert the phase relationship into a control or measurement result. This is useful in power-factor instrumentation, motor-control research, signal analyzers, and educational phase measurement systems. The loop bandwidth must be slow enough to preserve the phase relationship being measured yet fast enough to track expected changes. Component leakage, comparator offsets, and VCO gain variation should be included in the error budget, while the 1.5 MHz operating ceiling defines the usable bandwidth boundary.
Motor Speed Control
The CD4046AF/3 can form the timing core of a low-speed motor-speed control system by locking an oscillator to a command or feedback frequency. The phase comparator supplies a correction signal, and the external VCO and loop filter determine how quickly and accurately the controlled speed follows the reference. This arrangement is practical for stepper-motor pulse systems, small DC motor controls, and laboratory drives. Mechanical inertia and load variation affect the required loop bandwidth, so designers should verify starting behavior, overshoot, and stable operation across supply and temperature extremes.

Заметки по проектированию
Keep the phase-comparator output, loop filter, VCO control node, and feedback divider physically close to the CD4046AF/3. Short traces reduce parasitic capacitance and susceptibility to injected noise, which can appear as phase jitter or unstable lock behavior. Route the oscillator and feedback paths away from switching nodes and high-current return paths, and use a solid ground-plane connection for the CMOS device.
Do not treat the 1.5 MHz listing limit as proof that every loop is stable at 1.5 MHz. Capture range, VCO gain, divider ratio, loop-filter values, and supply voltage determine usable operating points. Before release, test lock acquisition from the worst-case initial phase error and verify steady-state jitter after settling. Compare these results with the limits in the manufacturer datasheet.
Decouple the supply pins with a local ceramic capacitor and provide adequate energy storage for transient loads. Follow the manufacturer datasheet for the recommended capacitor type, effective capacitance, and ESR range because incorrect compensation can affect loop stability or startup. Check the supply current over temperature and confirm that upstream voltage ripple does not move the device outside its rated operating range.
Confirm the numbered 16-CDIP pinout, comparator output polarity, and pin states at power-up before assembling the PCB. A family-level illustration may differ from the exact suffix configuration, and an incorrect comparator connection can create positive feedback rather than stable phase lock. Review the CD4046AF/3 manufacturer pin-description table and validate every external connection against that document.
Информация о соответствии
The product listings do not state exact-MPN compliance declarations for RoHS, REACH, lead-free status, halogen-free status, or conflict-minerals compliance. AEC-Q100 is treated as not applicable because the target is a general-purpose clock-and-timing IC, not an identified automotive-qualified variant.
