Problems solved by technology

However, using an operational amplifier but in the entire matching range, due to the 65nm and below technology, the channel modulation effect of the transistor is very obvious. Under different output voltages Vctrl, the charge and discharge currents are different, and the charging and discharging current of the loop filter is different. The discharge time is different, so that the locking time of the phase-locked loop is different under different voltage control voltages, which will affect the phase noise performance of the phase-locked loop

Embodiment Construction

[0039] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific drawings and embodiments.

[0040] Such as figure 1 As shown: the charge pump is connected after the frequency and phase detector, and before the loop filter and the voltage-controlled oscillator. The performance of the charge pump directly affects the performance of the voltage-controlled oscillator, and then affects the performance of the phase-locked loop. It is a very critical circuit module in the phase-locked loop structure.

[0041] Such as figure 2 As shown, it is a traditional charge pump circuit, and the corresponding quiescent current matching result of this circuit is shown in image 3 As shown, the matching range that can meet the requirements is very small, which can hardly meet the basic use. The channel modulation effect of transistors in the 65nm and below processes is very obvious, and the working voltage is further reduced in the sub-micron process. It is impossible...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a circuit structure, in particular to a high-performance charge pump circuit in a phase-locked loop of a low-voltage charge pump, which belongs to the technical field of integrated circuits. Background technique [0002] The charge pump phase-locked loop is the most commonly used phase-locked loop structure in the RF phase-locked loop, such as figure 1 Shown is the current commonly used charge pump phase-locked loop structure, various non-ideal effects will be superimposed together and will deteriorate the characteristics of the phase-locked loop. The role of the charge pump (CP) in the phase-locked loop is to convert the digital control signal (UP, DN) output by the phase-frequency detector (PFD) into a control voltage-controlled oscillator ( VCO) analog control signal. The charge pump plays a decisive role in the performance of the phase-locked loop in the loop: the mismatch of the charge and discharge current of the charge...
