Abstract
A phase-locked loop (PLL) having a bias generator capable of reducing noise is provided. In the PLL, a voltage controlled oscillator is driven using a regulator. The bias generator, which applies a bias voltage to the regulator, is configured to have opposite power noise characteristics to the power noise characteristics of the regulator, such that the occurrence of jitter in the PLL is reduced.
