ABSTRACT:
A fully integrated, phase locked loop (PLL) having improved jitter characteristics uses the same digital/analog converter (DAC) that is normally used to control the time constant of the low pass loop filter to control the value of a capacitance connected between the output of a voltage-to-current converting input stage of the voltage controlled oscillator and ground. The capacitance introduces a third pole in the loop's transfer function. In this way, the separation in the frequency domain between the zero and the third pole of the transfer function is kept constant; thus, the damping factor remains constant while the .omega..sub.0 of the PLL is varied.
