PLL circuit having a phase offset detecting phase comparator

摘要

A phase-offset detecting phase comparator for comparing a reference signal and an auxiliary comparison signal which is a frequency-divided VCO output in terms of a phase to detect phase offset, and producing first and second delay control signals corresponding to the phase offset; a first delay element for adding delay to the auxiliary comparison signal by the first delay control signal to produce a comparison signal; a second delay element for adding delay to the VCO output by the second delay control signal to produce a PLL output; and a dummy frequency divider for adding delay corresponding to a frequency divider to the PLL output are provided.
