NOTE:
For (A), using K_φ in amps per radian with the filter’s impedance transfer function, Z(s), maintains units of volts per radian for the
detector/ filter combination. Additional sideband filtering can be accomplished by adding a capacitor C′ across R. The corner ω_c = 1/RC′
should be chosen such that ω_n is not significantly affected.

ASSUMING GAIN A IS VERY LARGE, THEN:

NOTE:
For (B), R1 is frequently split into two series resistors; each resistor is equal to R1 divided by 2. A capacitor CC is then placed from
the midpoint to ground to further filter the error pulses. The value of CC should be such that the corner frequency of this network does
not significantly affect ω_n.
* The φ_R and φ_V outputs are fed to an external combiner/loop filter. The φ_R and φ_V outputs swing rail–to–rail. Therefore, the user should be careful
not to exceed the common mode input range of the op amp used in the combiner/loop filter.
DEFINITIONS:
N = Total Division Ratio in Feedback Loop
K_φ (Phase Detector Gain) = IPDout / 2π amps per radian for PDout
K_φ (Phase Detector Gain) = VPD / 2π volts per radian for φ_V and φ_R

For a nominal design starting point, the user might consider a damping factor ζ≈0.7 and a natural loop frequency ω_n ≈ (2πfR/50) where fR is
the frequency at the phase detector input. Larger ω_n values result in faster loop lock times and, for similar sideband filtering, higher fR–related
VCO sidebands.
Either loop filter (A) or (B) is frequently followed by additional sideband filtering to further attenuate fR–related VCO sidebands. This additional
filtering may be active or passive.
