ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a phase locked loop circuit comprising: a frequency divider for frequency-diving an output signal to generate frequency-divided pulses; an oscillator for generating the output signal under control to an oscillation frequency by a control voltage obtained from a signal corresponding to a phase difference between the frequency-divided pulses and a reference frequency signal; and a controller for performing such a control that plural kinds of frequency dividing rate are switched to be given to the frequency divider for every time period having a predetermined number of the frequency divided pulses, and at a boundary of switching the plural kinds of frequency dividing rate, the plural kinds of frequency dividing rate are given co-existentially to the frequency divider, and further for switching the coexistent plural kinds of the frequency-dividing rate, the next frequency dividing rate is given before a first appearance of a frequency peak in a transitional characteristic of the frequency of the clock signal outputted from the phase locked loop circuit caused by previous setting the frequency-dividing rate.
