APPLICATION INFORMATION
low-pass-filter (LPF) configurations
Many excellent references are available that include detailed design information about LPFs and they should
be consulted for additional information. Lag-lead filters or active filters are often used. Examples of LPFs are
shown in Figure 25. When the active filter of Figure 25(c) is used, the reference should be applied to F
IN
-B
because of the amplifier inversion. Also, in practical filter implementations, C2 is used as additional filtering at
the VCO input. The value of C2 should be equal to or less than one-tenth the value of C1.

Using this filter makes the closed loop PLL system a type 1 second-order system. The response curves of this
system to a unit step are shown in Figure 26.
the active filter
When using the active filter shown in Figure 25(c), the phase detector inputs must be reversed since the filter
adds an additional inversion. Therefore, the input reference frequency should be applied to the F
IN
-B terminal
and the output of the VCO divider should be applied to the input reference terminal, F
IN
-A.

Using this filter makes the closed loop PLL system a type 2 second-order system. The response curves of this
