    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To speedily match a clock signal with the clock of a data signal by allowing a main PLL of the clock extracting circuit to control VCO by continuously controlling the phase and allowing an auxiliary PLL to lock a main loop by oscillating the VCO at a frequency close to an operating frequency. SOLUTION: The extracting circuit for the clock from the high-speed data stream has twin-loop PLL structure. The main loop consisting of a phase detector DFS, a driving current generator PC1, a loop filter FI, and VCO locks the phase of a clock signal which is generated by the VCO and present on a wiring to data arriving at the wiring 1. The subordinate loop consisting of a threshold comparator CS, a driving current generator PC2, a filter FI, and VCO locks the main loop by oscillating the VCO at the frequency close to a desired frequency. When the VCO oscillates a frequency greatly different from the optimum frequency and the wiring frequency is too low, the frequency detector DFR outputs an error pulse to the wire 4 and when the frequency of the wiring 2 is too high, an error pulse is generated to a wiring 5 to control the oscillation frequency of the VCO, thereby approximating its frequency to the desired frequency.
