ABSTRACT:
A PLL circuit according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a phase comparator to output an up signal and a down signal based on a phase difference between a reference clock signal and a feedback clock signal; an offset correcting circuit to correct a pulse width of at least one of the up signal and the down signal to output a modified up signal and a modified down signal; a first charge pump circuit to increase or decrease a charge pump output voltage to be output in accordance with the modified up signal and the modified down signal; a loop filter to filter out noise of the charge pump output voltage and generate a filter voltage; and a voltage-controlled oscillation circuit having an oscillation frequency controlled based on a voltage value of the filter voltage and outputting an output clock signal.
