ABSTRACT:
A stable and flexible phase locked loop system and method are disclosed. The system comprises a first phase frequency detector for detecting a difference between an internal clock signal and an external clock signal, and for generating a first control signal representing the difference. A first voltage controlled oscillator coupled to the first phase detector generates a first timing signal based on the first control signal. A first divider circuit coupled to the first voltage controlled oscillator divides the first timing signal by a first predetermined number to provide an output signal. A second phase frequency detector detects a difference between the first timing signal and a second timing signal, to generate a second control signal representing the difference. A second voltage controlled oscillator coupled to said second phase detector generates a third timing signal based on the second control signal. A second divider circuit coupled to the second voltage controlled oscillator divides the third timing signal by a second predetermined number to provide the second timing signal. A third divider circuit coupled to the second voltage controlled oscillator divides the third timing signal by a third predetermined number to provide the internal clock signal.
