Abstract

A post PLL filter is coupled to the output terminal of a phase locked loop. The post PLL filter reduces the jitter of the PLL output clock signal by increasing the Q of the phase locked loop. In addition, some embodiments of the present invention also provides amplitude magnification of the PLL output clock signal.
