A mixedsignal VCO and a digital processor are developed to accurately preset the frequency of VCO and greatly reduce the settling time. An auxiliary tuning loop is introduced in order to reduce reference spur caused by leakage current. The digital processor can automatically compensate presetting frequency variation with process and temperature, and control the operation of the auxiliary tuning loop. A 1.2 GHz integer-N synthesizer with 1 MHz reference input was implemented in a 0.18 μm process. The measured results demonstrate that the typical settling time of the synthesizer is less than 3 μs, and the phase noise is –108 dBc/Hz@1MHz. The reference spur is –52 dBc.展开更多
