A loop filter for a phase-locked loop that generates an output signal having a predetermined phase relationship with a reference signal, the loop filter being arranged to control a signal generator that forms the output signal in dependence on a phase error between the output signal and the reference signal by outputting a control signal for controlling the signal generator in dependence thereon, the loop filter being arranged to form the control signal to comprise a proportional component representative of an instantaneous magnitude of the phase difference and an integral component representative of an integral of the phase difference, the loop filter comprising a proportional path arranged to receive a signal representative of the instantaneous magnitude of the phase difference and form the proportional component of the control signal in dependence thereon and an integral path arranged to receive a signal representative of the instantaneous magnitude of the phase difference and form the integral component of the control signal in dependence thereon, the proportional and integral paths being decoupled in the loop filter such that each has a transfer function relating its received signal to its respective component of the control signal that is independent of the other path.
