What are the problems associated with switch type phase detector?

1 Answer

Answer :

1.The output voltage Ve is proportional to the input signal amplitude.This is undesirable because it makes phase detector gain and loop gain dependent on the input signal amplitude. 2.The output is proportional to cosQ making it non linear.
