Phase Transients – A phase transient is an unusual step or change in the phase-time of a signal over a relatively short
time period. This may be due to switching between equipment, reference switching, diagnostics, entry or exit to/from
Hold Over, or input reference transients. The STC3800 performance for reference switches is shown below: (loop
bandwidth =0.098 Hz)

Capture Range and Lock Range – Capture range and lock range are the maximum frequency errors on the reference input
within which the phase locked loop is able to achieve lock and hold lock, respectively. The STC3800 stratum 3 performance
is shown below:

This is the minimum chip capability, and guarantees the ability to capture and lock with a reference that is offset the maximum
allowed in one direction in the presence of an OCXO/TCXO that is offset the maximum in the opposite direction
(4.6 ppm + 4.6 ppm = 9.2 ppm).
