A PLL circuit has (i) a counter which divides a frequency of a VCO output whose frequency has been divided by a frequency divider and (ii) a memory which stores plural patterns of set cycles of the counter. The memory reads out one of the set cycles designated by a selection signal inputted through a serial bus (SB) from an outside of the PLL circuit. The set cycle, read out from the memory, which has a large amount of data, is inputted through a parallel bus (PB) into the counter, so that it hardly takes time to set a cycle for the counter. Further, even when the number of bits of the counter increases, the setting time is not lengthened.
