ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This document contains a description of the basics of a phase-locked loop when used as a frequency synthesizer. The document also contains an introduction to phase noise and a description of how to model and simulate phase noise in a phase-locked loop. Three different phase-lock loops are then designed, simulated and measured with the goal of generating local oscillator signals for an array of superheterodyne receivers. AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie dokument bevat ’n beskrywing van die basiese beginsels van ’n fasegeslote lus wanneer dit as ’n frekwensie-sintetiseerder gebruik word. Die dokument bevat ook ’n inleiding tot fasegeraas en ’n beskrywing van hoe om fasegeraas in ’n fasegeslote lus te modelleer en te simuleer. Drie verskillende fasesluitlusse word gebou, gesimuleer en gemeet met die doel om plaaslike ossillatorseine vir ’n verskeidenheid superheterodyne-ontvangers te genereer.
