The primary function is to filter the phase detector output to provide a clean control voltage to the VCO, ensuring stable frequency locking and reducing phase noise.
Bandwidth determines the loop's response speed and noise rejection; a wider bandwidth allows faster locking but may increase noise, while a narrower bandwidth improves noise suppression at the cost of slower response.
