    Abstract: A fractional-type phase-locked loop circuit (100), for synthesising an output signal (So) multiplying a frequency of a reference signal (Sr) by a selected fractional conversion factor, includes a frequency divider (105) for generating a feedback signal (Sb) dividing the frequency of the output signal by a frequency division factor selectable among at least two different integer-value division factors, and frequency divider control means (110;510) for causing the frequency division factor to vary between the at least two integer-value division factors in a pre-defined number of cycles, thereby an average frequency division factor over said pre-defined number of cycles has a fractional value. Means (125a;125b;125c) are provided for compensating a phase error introduced by the frequency divider on the basis of a value indicative of the phase error (ACC;APE) obtained from said frequency divider control means. The phase-error compensation means includes rounding means (170a;170b), receiving an input binary code (ACC;APE) with a first number of binary digits, indicative of the phase error value, and providing an output binary code (ACR;APER), with a second number of binary digits lower than the first number of digits, defining a rounded phase error value.
