Abstract:
A phase-locked loop circuit includes a phase frequency detector (PFD) circuit, a digital code generator circuit, a frequency divider and an oscillator circuit. The PFD circuit is configured to detect a difference in phase and frequency between a reference clock and a feedback clock to generate a first control signal and a second control signal. The digital code generator circuit is configured to process the second control signal to generate a digital code. The frequency divider is configured to receive an output clock to generate the feedback clock. The oscillator circuit is configured to generate the output clock according to the first control signal and the digital code. A frequency of the output clock is determined according to a first control parameter and a second control parameter of different types. The first and second control parameters are adjusted in response to the first control signal and the digital code respectively.
