The circuits and methods of the various embodiments of the present invention enable changing the frequency of a frequency synthesizer. According to one embodiment, a method of changing a frequency of a clock signal generated by a frequency synthesizer comprises the steps of receiving a reference clock signal; receiving a command comprising a new frequency synthesizer value; locking to a new frequency based upon the new frequency synthesizer value; and dynamically outputting a generated clock signal based upon the new frequency synthesizer value. According to another embodiment, a method of changing a frequency of a clock signal comprises adaptively adjusting the digital loop bandwidth of the frequency synthesizer. A circuit for changing a frequency of a clock signal generated in an integrated circuit is also disclosed.
