    摘要: A phase-locked loop (PLL) frequency synthesizer (Fig. 3) incorporates fractional spur compensation circuitry. This fractional spur compensation circuitry dynamically compensates charge pump ripple whenever a charge pump operates. It can utilize a programmable divider (336), two phase detectors (314 and 324) each using a charge pump stage pumps. A fractional accumulator stage (340) determines the number of charge pumps that operate during a phase comparison. The PLL frequency synthesizer avoids the need for compensation current trimming. Also, fractional compensation is accomplished dynamically and in a manner that is robust to environmental changes. A phase-locked loop (PLL) fractional-N type frequency synthesizer can incorporate a sample-and-hold circuit. The synthesizer can reduce circuit size by eliminating a loop filter. The synthesizer or fractional-N type PLL can use a divider and at least two phase detectors coupled to a sample-and-hold circuit. A lock detecting circuit can initially determine a reference voltage for the sample-and-hold circuit.
