Abstract:
An oscillator includes a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) circuit and a processing circuit. The VCO circuit generates an oscillating frequency according to a digital signal, in which the oscillating frequency is a first oscillating frequency if the digital signal has a first signal value. The processing circuit determines a second signal value of the digital signal according to the first oscillating frequency and a target oscillating frequency, in order to tune the oscillating frequency to a second oscillating frequency. The processing circuit performs an interpolation operation according to a first frequency difference value between the target oscillating frequency and the first oscillating frequency and a second frequency difference value between the second oscillating frequency and the first oscillating frequency to determine a target signal value of the digital signal, in order to adjust the oscillating frequency to the target oscillating frequency.

Claim (Index 13):
The control method of  claim 12 , wherein if the first oscillating frequency is lower than the target oscillating frequency, decreasing a capacitance value of the variable capacitor array according to the second signal value, and if the first oscillating frequency is higher than the target oscillating frequency, increasing the capacitance value of the variable capacitor array according to the second signal value.
