ABSTRACT:
A PLL circuit in which a phase offset between a reference clock and a feedback clock is reduced. PLL circuit10includes a dummy phase comparator16that simulates a phase comparator11and has a pair of comparison inputs to which the reference clock is input, a dummy charge pump17that simulates a charge pump12and causes an output voltage thereof to rise or fall based on an up signal or a down signal output from the dummy phase comparator16, and an amplifier19for detecting a difference between the output voltage of the charge pump12and the output voltage of the dummy charge pump17. The PLL circuit controls the pulse widths of up and down signals of both of the phase comparator11and the dummy phase comparator16based on the output voltage of the amplifier19.
