ABSTRACT:
A phase synchronization circuit and an electronic apparatus equipped with the phase synchronization circuit are provided. The phase synchronization circuit includes an oscillation unit, a phase comparison unit, a loop unit, a drive unit, an oscillation control signal unit, and a gain characteristic information obtaining unit. In the phase synchronization unit, a compensation signal is generated based on the gain characteristic information obtained by the gain characteristic information obtaining unit at the time of the usual phase synchronizing operation, and the drive unit is controlled by the compensation signal so that a product of the input signal-oscillation frequency conversion gain at the time of actual operation and the drive signal with which the drive unit drives the loop filter unit is constant.
