An apparatus that minimizes phase error and jitter in a phase-locked loop. The apparatus includes a phase/frequency detector, a charge pump, a loop filter, a voltage-controlled oscillator, and a frequency divider, which are coupled together to form a phase-locked loop. The charge pump within the phase-locked loop contains a pull-up network and a pull-down network which are coupled to each other, and a current compensation device. If the pull-up network and the pull-down network are both conducting, the current compensation device adjusts currents flowing through the pull-up network and through the pull-down network such that the currents are substantially equal. This ensures that very little current flows into the loop filter, thereby substantially minimizing a build-up of charge on a capacitor in the loop filter, which can cause phase error and jitter in the phase-locked loop.
