A multi-loop phase lock loop (PLL) contains multiple loop filters, each having different bandwidths. The multi-loop PLL receives one of multiple high-frequency clock signals as an input. A phase detector outputs a signal, based on the phase difference between the high-frequency clock signal and a feedback signal to the loop filters. A voltage controlled oscillator generates an output clock signal based on signals received from the loop filters. During a clock switch over sequence between the multiple high-frequency input clock signals, the multi-loop PLL uses one of its loop filters with a wide bandwidth to quickly lock the input clock signal. Once the clock signal is locked, a narrower bandwidth loop filter in the PLL is then used to reduce jitter in the locked signal.
