Self-Biased Phase Locked Loop

Abstract

A self-biased PLL includes a first charge pump and a second charge pump, an output terminal of the first charge pump is connected with a discharge-charge capacitor to output a control voltage, an output terminal of the second charge pump is connected with an output terminal of a bias generator for outputting a first bias voltage equal to the control voltage, wherein, a current output from the first charge pump is equal to a value obtained through dividing the production of a first constant with a bias current of a voltage control oscillator by a frequency division factor of a frequency divider; a current output from the second charge pump is equal to a value obtained through dividing the bias current of the voltage control oscillator by a second constant; and a multiple relation exists between an output resistance of the bias generator and an equivalent resistance of a differential buffer delay stage in the voltage control oscillator.
