چکیده
This paper describes a low-jitter phase-locked loop (PLL) implemented in a 0.18m CMOS process. A sample–reset loop filter architecture is used that averages the oscillator proportional control current which provides the feedforward zero over an entire update period and hence leads to a ripple-free control signal. The ripple-free control current eliminates the need for an additional filtering pole, leading to a nearly 90 phase margin which minimizes input jitter peaking and transient locking overshoot. The PLL damping factor is made insensitive to process variations by making it dependent only upon a bandgap voltage and ratios of circuit elements. This ensures tracking between the natural frequency and the stabilizing zero. The PLL has a frequency range of 125–1250 MHz, frequency resolution better than 500 kHz, and rms jitter less than 0.9% of the oscillator period.

متن کاملA PLL Exploiting Sub-Sampling of the VCO Output to Reduce In-band Phase Noise
In this paper, we present a 2.2-GHz low jitter PLL based on sub-sampling. It uses a phasedetector/charge-pump (PD/CP) that sub-samples the VCO output with the reference clock. In contrast to what happens in a classical PLL, the PD/CP noise is not multiplied by N in this sub-sampling PLL. Moreover, no frequency divider is needed in the locked state and hence divider noise and power can be elimin...
