  • Abstract
    A 3mW inherently glitch-free phase-switching prescaler and a loop filter with a 0.2mW capacitance multiplier are proposed for a ΣΔ PLL synthesizer in 0.35μm CMOS. The ΣΔ noise folding is minimized by optimal design of ΣΔ modulator and minimized PLL nonlinearities. The synthesizer has a 9.4% tuning range of 2.23-2.45GHz. The phase noise is -90dBc/Hz at 10kHz, and -128dBc/Hz at 10MHz offset.
