anyone could tell me the merits and shorcomings of PLL and DLL?
which one is easier to lock in a very short time, say, within 50ns?
 

Try this link on PLL/DLL comparison:

dll
is only 1st
and PLL often 3rd
 

dll can used to acheive a quicker lock with the input.i have another question ,what is the main cause of jitter in a DLL.since in a DLL there is no VCO unlike a PLL,i believe the main causes should be the charge pump current mismatch and also the pfd charge injection and charge sharing phenomenon.correct me if iam wrong.

power noise will contribute a lot, cause it cannot low pass easily by the loop.
 

power supply noise also contributes to jitter in case of a pll.i have one more question,why do we need a start up circuit for a dll and what is the reason for false lock in a dll.

regards
amarnath
