Abstract

See full text

A PLL circuit having a desired performance is provided. A PLL circuit (100) includes a phase comparator (11) that detects a phase difference; a voltage control oscillator (12) that generates a signal to be returned to the phase comparator (11); and a loop filter (10) that is disposed between the phase comparator (11) and the voltage control oscillator (12) and includes an adder (50) that adds outputs from a proportional path (20), a first integral path (40), and a second integral path (30). The second integral path (30) and the first integral path (40) each include a cumulative adder, a ΔΣ modulator, and an RC filter. The lock detector (36) detects a lock state, controls a gain of the first cumulative adder (42) and a bandwidth of the first RC filter (45), and switches an input to a second ΔΣ modulator (33) to a fixed value.
