A phase locked loop (PLL) includes a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) configured to supply an output signal. A phase frequency detector (PFD) is configured to receive a reference frequency signal and to provide a first control signal. A first charge pump is configured to receive the first control signal and to provide a first voltage signal in order to control the VCO. A second charge pump is configured to receive the first control signal and to provide a second voltage signal. A comparator is configured to receive a reference voltage signal, to compare the reference voltage signal and the second voltage signal, and to provide a second control signal. The PFD is configured to adjust at least one side slope of the first control signal based on the second control signal.
