ABSTRACT:
To provide a phase locked loop circuit that is capable of performing an automatic adjustment that satisfies a desired characteristic not depending on a process variation and an environmental variation. The phase locked loop circuit has a phase frequency comparator, a charge pump, a loop filter, a frequency divider, a selector, and a voltage controlled oscillator. The frequency divider inputs an output signal and a reference signal, divides the output signal, and outputs a feedback signal, and also outputs a select signal, a trimming signal, and a limit signal from the output signal. The voltage controlled oscillator inputs the control voltage, the base voltage, the trimming signal, and the limit signal, changes the output signal frequency according to the control voltage so as to limit the upper limit frequency of the output signal. Also, the voltage controlled oscillator is capable of changing the frequency sensitivity of the output signal that is outputted with respect to the control voltage according to the trimming signal, and the upper limit frequency of the output signal according to the limit signal.
