Abstract

A 300MHz PLL including FVC (frequency to voltage converter) is designed and fabricated in 0.8$\mu$m CMOS process. In this design, a FVC and a 2nd - order passive filter are added to the conventional charge-pump PLL to improve the acquisition time. The dual-rijng VCO(voltage controlled oscillator) realized in this paper has a frequency range form 208 to 320MHz. Integrated circuits have been fully tested and analyzed in detail and it is proved that pull-in speed is enhanced with the use fo FVC. In VCO range from 230MHz to 310MHz, experimental results show that realized PLL exhibits 4 times faster pull-in speed than that of conventional PLL.
