Zusammenfassung:Various aspects of this disclosure describe switched-capacitor circuits in a PLL. Examples include routing current from a first current source through a capacitor to ground during a first clock phase, routing current from a second current source through the capacitor to ground during a second clock phase, and transferring charge on the capacitor to a loop filter capacitor during a third clock phase. The first current source may generate current responsive to UP error samples from a phase/frequency detector (PFD), and the second current source generates current responsive to DN error samples from the PFD.
