摘要

A charge-pump circuit using a current-bypass technique, which suppresses charge sharing and reduces the sub-threshold currents, helps to decrease phase-locked loop (PLL) jitter without resorting to a feedback amplifier. The PLL shows no stability issues and no power-up problems, which may occur when a feedback amplifier is used. The PLL is implemented in 0.11-mu m CMOS technology to achieve 0.856-ps RMS and 8.75-ps peak-to-peak jitter, which is almost independent of ambient temperature while consuming 4 mW from a 1.2-V supply.
