A phase frequency detector (PFD) isolates supply (e.g., voltage supply) to a reference path and a feedback path of a phase locked loop (PLL) such that the power supply to the reference path is independent of the power supply to the feedback path. This isolation improves linearity. In one instance, the PFD includes a supply voltage, one or more switches, a reference capacitor and a feedback capacitor. The reference capacitor is selectively coupled to the supply voltage via the one or more switches and the feedback capacitor is selectively coupled to the supply voltage via the one or more switches.
