A phase detector for measuring phase differences between K input signals is provided. The phase detector includes a counter, K first registers and a first subtractor. Each first register receives the counter signal of the counter and a respective input signal for updating a counter value in response to timing information on the input signal. The first subtractor receives the counter values to generate phase difference representing values. A frequency detector is also provided. The first subtractor is substituted by a second subtractor and K second registers are included. Each second register is connected to a respective first register. Each second register receives the counter value of its first register and the same input signal as that of its first register for backing-up the counter value as a back-up counter value in response to the timing information on the input signal. The second subtractor subtracts, for each second register and its first register, the counter values thereof to generate a frequency representing value. |
