Abstract:
This disclosure relates to fractional-N phase-locked loops. A digital filter can filter out quantization noise from a modulator. Separate paths can process an integer part associated with an output signal of the digital filter and a fractional part associated with the output signal of the digital filter. The separate paths can be combined in the fractional-N phase-locked loop, for example, as a weighted sum.
