We describe a type of phase and frequency detector employing both an analog phase detector and a digital phase and frequency detector. The analog and digital detectors are mutually exclusive so that only one of them is active at any given time, resulting in a phase detector with both the broad capture range of digital circuits and the high speed and low noise of analog mixers. The detector has been used for phase locking the diode lasers generating the sequence of Raman pulses in an atom interferometer. The rms phase error of the phase lock is about 100 mrad in a 5 Hz–10 MHz bandwidth. The limit set on the interferometer phase resolution by the residual phase noise is 1.1 mrad. Since the digital circuitry is implemented with a programmable logic device the detector can be easily adapted to other experiments requiring frequency/phase stabilization of lasers sources.
