Abstract

An arrangement for generating a transmission clock signal and a reception clock signal is proposed in which only a single voltage-controlled oscillator is used, the reception clock signal being generated by phase-adjusting means whereas the transmission clock signal is generated directly by the voltage-controlled oscillator. Cross-talk between a plurality of voltage-controlled oscillators can be prevented in this way. Also, various measures are proposed for optimizing a circuit of this kind.
