Abstract
A phase frequency detector (PFD) includes a first circuit portion and a second circuit portion. The first circuit portion receives a reference signal and activates a first error signal if the phase of the reference frequency leads the phase of a feedback signal. The second circuit portion receives the reference and activates a second error signal if the phase of the reference frequency lags the phase of the feedback signal. The first circuit portion is powered by a first power supply, and the second circuit portion is powered by a second power supply. A PLL implemented using the PFD generates a frequency output with minimized jitter.
