Abstract

Jitter method and control circuit for a circuit block in a transceiver system having a phase lock loop circuit which includes an oscillator, a charge pump connected to the oscillator to add or subtract charge to or from said oscillator, and a low pass filter connected to said charge pump are provided. Circuitry is connected to the output of the oscillator and the input of the charge pump to control the amount of charge added to or subtracted from the charge pump to control the bandwidth output by the oscillator and thereby reduce jitter in the phase lock circuit.
