ABSTRACT:
In a PLL circuit including an oscillator, a phase comparator, a charge pump circuit, and a loop filter, without providing a plurality of capacitative elements, that is, without increasing the occupied area so much, the characteristics of the PLL circuit can be adjusted according to manufacture variations in a resistive element and a capacitative element, and a loop filter can be formed on a chip. A resistive element and a capacitative element of a loop filter are formed on a semiconductor chip. As the resistive element, a plurality of elements having different resistance values are provided and switched by a switch, thereby enabling the resistance value to be adjusted. Current in a charge pump circuit is also made adjustable, and the current of the charge pump circuit is adjusted according to switching among the resistance values of the resistive elements.
