The discretely switchable capacitance module (14, 314) includes, a capacitor (22, 322) coupled between a first node (41, 341) and a second node (42, 342), a switch (24, 320) coupled between the second node (42, 322) and a third node (43, 343); and a DC feed circuit (28, 328, 329), having a first end (28a, 328a, 329a) coupled to the second node (42) and a second end (28b, 328b, 329b) configured to receive a first or second control signal (30, 330). The control node (25, 325) of the switch (24, 320) is tied to a predetermined bias voltage (26, 326). When the first control signal (30, 330) is applied, the capacitor (22) is coupled between the first node (41, 341) and the third node (43, 343) via the switch (24, 320), and when the second control signal (30, 330) is applied the capacitor (22) is decoupled from the inductor (18, 420, 421).

    Abstract: A digital phase-locked loop having a phase frequency detector (PFD), a 3-state phase frequency detection converter (3-state PFD converter), a loop filter and a digital voltage-controlled oscillator is provided. The PFD receives an input frequency and a reference frequency and outputs a first signal and a second signal based on the phase difference between the input frequency and the reference frequency. The 3-state PFD converter outputs a 3-state signal according to the first and second signals, wherein the 3-state signal is presented in 1, 0 and -I. The loop filter outputs at least one control bit based on only the 3-state signal. The DCO adjusts the outputted oscillation frequency according to the control bit.
