<p>Embodiments of the present invention may include an apparatus and method to reduce an output swing in each stage of a multi-stage loop filter while also maintaining a desired signal transfer function for each respective stage. A given stage of the loop filter may include an integrator, a feedback path, a first cancellation path, and a second cancellation path. The first cancellation path may be coupled to the output of the integrator. The second cancellation path may be coupled to a feedback path provided about the input and output of the integrator. A first cancellation signal may be injected into the first cancellation path to reduce the output swing of the integrator. A second cancellation signal may be injected into the second cancellation path to minimize a change in the integrator's signal transfer function caused by the first cancellation signal.</p> |
