Abstract:
A clock signal producing device of producing a clock signal being in synchronism with a reference signal to be inputted, said clock signal producing device comprising:phase calculation means for calculating a digital phase value being in synchronism with said clock signal and indicating a phase of the reference signal when said clock signal being produced;sinusoidal wave converting means for converting the digital phase value outputted from said phase calculation means into an amplitude value of a sinusoidal wave signal;D/A (digital to analog) converting means for converting an output signal from said sinusoidal wave converting means into an analog signal;phase comparing means for comparing a phase between an output signal of said D/A converting means and the reference signal and for outputting a phase error signal therefore; anda voltage controlled oscillator being driven by an output of said phase comparing means,said clock signal producing device characterized by outputting an output of said voltage controlled oscillator as the clock signal.
