Abstract
A stabilization technique that relaxes the tradeoff between the settling speed and the magnitude of output sidebands in phase-locked frequency synthesizers. The method introduces a zero in the open-loop transfer function through the use of a discrete-time delay element, thereby obviating the need for resistors in the loop filter.
