FRACTIONAL-N PHASE-LOCKED LOOP
Abstract:
A fractional-N phase-locked loop (PLL) includes a phase detector, a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), a frequency divider and a frequency multiplier with a multiplication factor of a mixed number. The phase detector compares phase difference between a reference frequency and a divided signal from the frequency divider. The voltage-controlled oscillator generates the output frequency according to the phase difference. The frequency multiplier performs frequency multiplication on the output frequency to generate a multiplied signal, and the frequency multiplier comprises a second phase-locked loop, to form a second loop. The frequency divider performs frequency division on the multiplied signal to generate the divided signal. The divided signal and the reference frequency are compared by the phase detector to determine the phase difference.
