A system and method for effectively generating an electronic control signal includes a loop filter that has a first capacitor, a second capacitor, and a damping resistor. The first capacitor typically has a significantly greater capacitance than said second capacitor. A primary charge pump provides a primary charge current to the loop filter, and a damping charge pump provides a damping charge current to the loop filter. The loop filter responsively generates the electronic control signal for regulating the output frequency of a voltage-controlled oscillator. All components of the loop filter are sized to be implemented as part of an integrated circuit device. |
