Abstract:
A closed-loop circuitry includes, in part, a loop filter and a current source/sink coupled to the loop filter to adjust the phase/frequency of the signal generated by the closed-loop circuitry. Because the voltage generated by the loop filter has a relatively low frequency, the current source/sink is operable at a relatively low frequency. Each current source and current sink may be a current digital-to-analog (DAC). The amount of current sourced into or sunk out of the loop filter by the current DAC is varied by setting the associated bits of a multi-bit signal. If the closed-loop circuitry is differential, a current source is coupled to the loop filter adapted to receive the differentially high signal, and a current source is coupled to the loop filter adapted to receive the differentially low signal.
