I.INTRODUCTION
HIGH-SPEEDswitchingisoneofthemostimportantcharacteristicsinfrequencysynthesizers.In1999,AbouEl-Elaproposedamethodinwhichanadditionalinputtoavoltagecontroloscillator(VCO)isrequiredtogethigherswitchingspeedinaphase-lockedloop(PLL)frequencysynthesizer[1].ThisisastructuretoprovideVCOwithanadditionalinputofthesawtoothwaveusingadigital-to-analog(D/A)converter.Wheneverfrequencyissynthesized,thewaveformgeneratorwiththemostoptimumslopeanddurationisrequired.Therefore,thecomplicateddesignandtheexactsynchronizationforhigh-speedswitchingmakeitdisadvantageous.In1995,MaternaaddressedthePLLstructurebasedonapre-tuningapproachthatusesanexternaltuningvoltagetoaVCObyaD/Aconverterforextremelyhigh-frequencysatelliteapplications[2].However,therewasnodiscussionaboutthesystemswitchingcharacteristics.In2001,Ryuproposedasimplifiedstructurethatimprovesswitchingspeedandpowerconsumptionofthedigitaldirect-frequencysynthesizer(DDFS)-drivenPLL[3].Althoughthereisanadvantageoftheeffectivewide-bandapplications,theoperatingspeedofthewholesystemdependsonPLLspeed.In2000,FouzarproposedaPLLfrequencysynthesizerthathasdual-loopformusingafrequency-to-voltageconverter(FVC)[4].HighswitchingspeedcanbeobtainedbyuseoftheFVCandthecoarsetuningcontrollerusingtheoutputofthephasedetectorandVCO.AdditionalhardwarecomplexityiscumbersomeandFVClimitstheswitchingspeed.
Inthispaper,theswitchingperformancecharacteristicsofthedigitalhybrid(DH)-PLLfrequencysynthesizerbasedonpretuningapproachisaddressed.TheeffectsofthedivisionratioforfrequencysynthesisanderrorsofcircuitcomponentsontheswitchingperformanceoftheDH-PLLarenewlyanalyzedandpresentedwithsimulationresults.Gainvariation,offseterrorgeneratedinaD/Aconverter,andfrequencydrifterrorofVCOduetotemperatureandagingcanbeincludedintheerrorsofthecircuitcomponents.D/Aconvertersof10-,12-,and14-bitwordlengthareconsideredinthepaper.

III.ANALYSISOFSWITCHINGCHARACTERISTICS
A.DivisionRatio
Theswitchingtimeandoutputjittercharacteristicofthefrequencysynthesizerdependonthefrequencydivisionratio.Dampingfactorζis1.0forbothconventionalPLLand
DH-PLL.ParameterizationofloopfilterinFig.2isbasedonthesecond-orderPLLsystem.Inputreferencefrequencyis100kHz,phasedetectorgain(Kpd)is1mA/2π,VCOgain(Kvco)is5MHz/V,andoutputfrequencybandwidthis15~30MHz.Frequencysynthesisspacingisdividedintotwogroups:
narrowhopping(from15.0to15.1MHz)andwidehopping(from15.0to30.0MHz).Settlingtimeisdefinedastherequiredtimethattheresponserippleisreducedintolessthan1%offrequencyhopspacingbydivisionratio.
TheperformanceanalysisresultsareshowninTableI.RipplevoltageismeasuredinsteadystateofVCOcontrolvoltage.Inthecaseofnarrowhopspacing,DH-PLLisabout5.84times
fasterthantheconventionalPLL,asshowninFig.3(a),(b).Inthecaseofwidehopspacing,theDH-PLLis31.68timesfasterthantheconventionalsystem.Thereisa7.26timesdifferenceinswitchingspeedbetweennarrowhoppingandwidehoppingoftheconventionalPLL.Onthecontrary,DH-PLLhasasmallgapof1.34timesinthesamecondition.Therefore,thereisnogreatswitchingperformancevariationaccordingtofrequencyhopspacinginDH-PLL.
AsshowninTableI,theVCOcontrolvoltagerippleoftheDH-PLLsystemisnotgreatlydifferentfromtherippleoftheconventionalPLLsystemwhenαisten.Also,iftheDH-PLL
