Abstract:
A high frequency signal processing device is capable of carrying out high-accuracy modulation by a PLL circuit. A digital loop is configured in addition to an analog loop having, for example, a phase frequency detector, a charge pump circuit, and a loop filter. A digital calibration circuit is provided which searches for the optimal code set to a capacitor bank upon frequency modulation. Upon the search for the optimal code, a calibration controller first sets a division ratio based on a center frequency to a divider and determines the value of a voltage control signal using the analog loop. Then, the loop filter holds the value of the voltage control signal therein, and a division ratio corresponding to a “center frequency+modulated portion” is set to the divider, thereby operating the digital loop. The optimal code is obtained by a convergent value of the digital loop.
