  • Abstract
    A digital PLL uses a high resolution coarse-fine time-to-digital converter (TDC) for wide loop bandwidth. The loop bandwidth is set to 400 kHz with a 26 MHz reference for GSM. The in-band phase noise contribution from the TDC is -116 dBc/Hz, the phase noise is -117 dBc/Hz at high-band 400 kHz offset, and the RMS phase error is 0.3deg.
