Patent ID: 10998908

Abstract:
A phase locked loop of the present disclosure includes a phase comparator circuit, a loop filter, an oscillator circuit, an AD converter circuit, and a current generator circuit. The phase comparator circuit compares a phase of a first signal and a phase of a second signal based on a clock signal. The loop filter includes a resistor element and a capacitor element, and generates a control voltage on the basis of a phase comparison result of the phase comparator circuit. The resistor element has one end coupled to a first node and another end coupled to a second node. The capacitor element has one end coupled to the second node. The oscillator circuit generates the clock signal on the basis of the control voltage. The AD converter circuit converts a voltage difference between the two ends of the resistor element into a digital code. The current generator circuit generates a first current on the basis of the digital code and supplies the first current to the second node.
