Abstract
A new high performance charge pump circuit is designed and realized in 0.18 μm CMOS process. A wide input ranged rail-to-rail operational amplifier and self-biasing cascode current mirror are used to enable the charge pump current to be well matched in a wide output voltage range. Furthermore, a method of adding a precharging current source is proposed to increase the initial charge current, which will speed up the settling time of CPPLLs. Test results show that the current mismatching can be less than 0.4% in the output voltage range of 0.4 to 1.7 V, with a charge pump current of 100 μA and a precharging current of 70 μA. The average power consumption of the charge pump in the locked condition is around 0.9 mW under a 1.8 V supply voltage.
