Abstract
Some embodiments include apparatuses having a first path in a phase locked loop, the first path including a phase frequency detector to receive a first signal having a first frequency and a first node to provide a voltage; an oscillator coupled to a second node and the first node to provide a second signal having a second frequency at the second node; a second path including a frequency divider coupled to the second node and the phase frequency detector; and a circuit to generate digital information having a value based on a value of the voltage at the second node.
