Description
The Charge Pump block produces an output current which is proportional to the difference in duty cycles between the signals at its up and down input ports. In a phase-locked loop (PLL) system, the Charge Pump block converts the phase error as represented by the two outputs of the PFD block into a single current at the input to the Loop Filter.

More About
Inside the Charge Pump
The Charge Pump block converts the two outputs of the PFD block into a single output. It consists of two current branches: one Up and one down. The difference between these two branches is summed to the leakage current impairment, if enabled.
Each current branch consists of a Logic Decision block, an Impairments subsystem, and a gain block. The Logic Decision block compares the incoming signal to the Input Threshold. The Impairments subsystem incorporates the effect of the charge pump impairments. The gain block multiplies the output of the Impairments subsystem to produce the current level defined in the Output current parameter.
