ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a phase-locked loop comprising a phase detector (PD), an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a loop filter (LF), a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO). The phase jitter that occurs in such a hybrid phase-locked loop is reduced without enhancing the requirements as to the resolution of the digital-to-analog converter (DAC), in that a fractionizer (FR) is inserted after the loop filter (LF) that is operating at a first clock (TL), which fractionizer produces a main value (HW) and a residual value (RW), and the sum (SW) of the main value (HW) and a correction bit (KB) derived from the residual value (RW) is applied to the digital-to-analog converter (DAC) that is operating at a second clock (TA).
