Abstract
An improved adaptive loop lag filter for phase locked loop frequency synthesizers used in scanning receivers includes an additional resistor controllably inserted into the lag filter by a series-coupled C-MOS switch. The filter can be operated in an intermediate bandwidth mode. Switching to an intermediate bandwidth mode from the wide bandwidth mode before switching to a narrow bandwidth mode reduces the magnitude and duration of disturbances at the VCO output during bandwidth switching and promotes rapid settling of the synthesizer. The improved filter also includes a capacitor coupled between the output of the series-coupled switch and a signal ground to further attenuate any switching transients.
