A low phase noise and low spur phase-locked loop (PLL) for L1-band global positioning system receiver is proposed in this paper. For obtaining low phase noise for PLL, All-PMOS LC-VCO with varactor-smoothing technique and noise-filtering technique is adopted. To reduce the reference spur, a low current-mismatch charge pump is carefully designed. A quasi-closed-loop auto frequency control circuit is used to accelerate the lock process of PLL. The PLL is fabricated in 180nm CMOS Mixed-Signal process while it operates under 1.8V supply voltage. The measured output frequency of PLL is 1.571GHz and output power is -1.418dBm. The in-band phase noise is -98.1 dBc/Hz @ 100kHz, while the out-band phase noise is -130.3dBc/Hz @ 1MHz. The reference spur is -75.8dBc at 16.368MHz offset. When quasi closed-loop AFC is working, the measured lock time is about 10.2µs. |
