Abstract:
Disclosed is a phase-locked loop and a delay-locked loop. When the phase-locked loop switches from a sleep state to an active state, a frequency of a reference signal is the same as a frequency of a reference signal which has been synchronized in a previous active state. The phase-locked loop alternately operates in a sleep state and an active state. A frequency-divided output signal of the phase-locked loop is synchronized with a frequency-divided reference signal, when the phase-locked loop switches from a sleep state to an active state, a frequency of the frequency-divided output signal is identical to a frequency of a frequency-divided output signal which has been synchronized in a previous active state. Information corresponding to the frequency of the frequency-divided output signal which has been synchronized in the previous active state is stored in a capacitor.

Claim (Index 12):
The phase-locked loop of  claim 11 , wherein the synchronizer comprises:\n a first flip-flop configured to receive the sleep signal, sample the sleep signal with the reference signal, and output the reference signal frequency divider activation signal; and a second flip-flop configured to receive the reference signal frequency divider activation signal, sample reference signal frequency divider activation signal with the output signal, and output the output signal frequency divider activation signal.
