Description
The TM-056 is based on digital PLL (DPLL) that performs filtering of input signals, and complemented by an analog PLL (APLL) required to deliver
high quality output signals. The most critical element of the TM-056 is the DPLL that generates a phase-locked clock, filters jitter and wander
and suppresses input phase transients. All of these features are in agreement with international standards. The DPLL supports three mandatory
modes of operation. (Free-run, Lock and Holdover). Each of these modes places specific requirements on the building blocks of the DPLL.
In the Free-run mode, the output is locked to an internal OCXO therefore timing and synchronization signals are based on the accuracy of
cu
on-board oscillators. This mode is typically used when a master clock source is required, not valid history of data for the Holdover mode, or
dover mo
immediately following system power-up before network synchronization is achieved.
In Holdover mode, the TM-056 generates a clock based on data collected from past reference signals when the module was locked. The
e
Holdover mode is typically used when no external reference is available. The stability of the output signal in Holdover
mode depends o
the
l
of
stability of the on-board oscillator. By default TM-056 uses OCXO as an on-board oscillator but other type of oscillators are available on request.

In Lock mode the device can be locked to one of two external reference signals. The Lock mode is typically
used when a slave clock
source,
ly
sourc
synchronized to the network is required. In this mode, the TM-056 provides timing signals, which are synchronized to one of two references
gnals,
ynchronized
referen
inputs (i.e. REF1 or REF2). The input reference signals may have a variety of nominal frequencies, which are specifi
ed by custom
nal
s,
customers.
Both input references are continuously monitored and evaluated by the module
in terms of presence and frequency offset relative
to the local
dule
le
t
oscillator. The TM-056 rejects all reference signals that are out of the frequency range
of approximately ±17ppm. A ref

ange
reference will be qualified if
b
the signal is present and within the frequency limit for more than 20s approximately.
ely.
The TM-056 dynamically changes the loop bandwidth according to the status
of the DPLL. There are th
cording
tatus
three stages fo the DPLL to be locked. The
for
first stage is frequency acquisition that runs until the frequency becomes
equal to the reference. T
second st
stage is phase acquisition that runs
e
comes
The
until a new phase reference is not determined. The
third stage is tracking when the DPLL is lo
e
locked and tra
tracks the phase reference with very low
loop bandwidth. This method with three stages
ensures a minimum locking time and
minimum phase jumps and shifts during rearrangement.

By changing the control inputs the user can change the state of the TM-056 accord-
ing to the state engine diagram. The state engine diagram of the TM-056 shows
the transients between the three operating modes: Free-run, Lock and Holdover
showed as shaded ellipse, in a changing environment. The temporary operating
states, showed as circle, are used internally until one of the three modes is reached.
Besides the control inputs (CNT1 and CNT2) certain types of inputs and statuses
affect the changes in the state engine such as the availability of external references
and change of the quality of the input reference signal beyond predefined limits.
