In addition, according to designing requirement, phase-locked loop circuit 100 also optionally comprises primary Ioops filter 740.Loop filter 740 is coupled to charge pump 730, for the control signal S exported charge pump 730 ccarry out filtering.
Coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120 is coupled to phase-frequency detector 110, in order to receive the control signal S of the comparative result of instruction phase-frequency detector 110 c.As previously mentioned, in some embodiments, coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120 is coupled to phase-frequency detector 110 by charge pump 730, therefore control signal S creceived by charge pump 730 and obtain.And in other embodiments, be then also coupled to phase-frequency detector 110 by loop filter 740, therefore control signal S ccan be received by loop filter 740 and obtain.
Coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120 for a progressive frequency range reduced, to control signal S ccarry out low-pass filtering, and produce filtering signal S f.In other words, after phase-locked loop circuit 100 comes into operation, the frequency range of coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120 can be reduced progressively.
Fig. 1 also shows the embodiment of a thin portion structure of coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120.As shown in Figure 1, coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120 comprises the first low pass filter 124 and frequency range controller 122, wherein the frequency range of the first low pass filter 124 be above-mentioned coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120 by diminishing frequency range.First low pass filter 124 is coupled to frequency range controller 122, for receiving a frequency range control signal S by frequency range controller 122 wadjust its frequency range.In other words, at frequency range control signal S wcontrol under, the frequency range (i.e. the frequency range of coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120) of the first low pass filter 124 can be little by little reduced.In addition, the first low pass filter 124 can reception control signal S c, come control signal S with the frequency range after adjusting ccarry out low-pass filtering, and produce filtering signal S f, and by filtering signal S fbe supplied to VCO module 130.
VCO module 130 is coupled to coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120 and charge pump 730 (by loop filter 740), for simultaneously according to control signal S cwith filtering signal S fproduce an output signal Fout.Carefully, VCO module 130 is according to control signal S c, and produce the first oscillator signal F with the first VCO gain K1 1.In addition, VCO module 130 according to filtering signal S f, and produce the second oscillator signal F with the second VCO gain K2 2.Preferably, the second VCO gain K2 is higher than the first VCO gain K1, and more preferably, the second VCO gain K2 is far above the first VCO gain K1.VCO module 130 is again according to the first oscillator signal F 1with the second oscillator signal F 2produce output signal Fout.
Fig. 1 also shows the embodiment of a thin portion structure of VCO module 130.As shown in Figure 1, VCO module 130 can comprise the first voltage controlled oscillator 132, second voltage controlled oscillator 134 and blender 136.First voltage controlled oscillator 132 has the first above-mentioned VCO gain K1, and is coupled to phase-frequency detector 110, in order to according to control signal S cto produce the first oscillator signal F 1.Second voltage controlled oscillator 134 has the second VCO gain K2, and is coupled to coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120, for according to filtering signal S fto produce the second oscillator signal F 2.Blender 136 is coupled to the first voltage controlled oscillator 132 and the second voltage controlled oscillator 134, for mixing the first oscillator signal F 1with the second oscillator signal F 2to produce output signal Fout.Wherein, the frequency outputing signal Fout equals the first oscillator signal F 1frequency and the second oscillator signal F 2the summation of frequency.

It should be noted that in the embodiment shown in fig. 1, output signal Fout and feedback signal Fo is same signal.But the present invention is not as limit.Such as, in other embodiments, feedback path 140 includes one or more frequency eliminator, that is feedback signal Fo can be that output signal Fout produces after the frequency eliminator frequency elimination of feedback path 140.
Under above-mentioned configuration, when the frequency of the frequency of input signal Fref and phase place and feedback signal Fo and phase place different time, phase-frequency detector 110 can by change control signal S ccurrent potential, adjusting the frequency of the feedback signal Fo that VCO module 130 produces and phase place Jin mono-Walk makes the frequency of feedback signal Fo and phase place level off to the frequency of input signal Fref and phase place, and finally make feedback signal Fo and the frequency both input signal Fref and phase place identical, and complete the locking of output signal Fout and feedback signal Fo.
Carefully, by phase-frequency detector 110 by compared with the frequency of input signal Fref and feedback signal Fo and phase place, control signal S can be changed according to comparative result ccurrent potential, and and then utilize VCO module 130 to change the first oscillator signal F 1frequency.In addition, due to filtering signal S fthat coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120 is by control signal S ccarry out low-pass filtering and obtain, that is filtering signal S fcurrent potential and control signal S ccurrent potential between have the relevant of certain degree.Therefore, as control signal S ccurrent potential when being adjusted, filtering signal S fcurrent potential also change thereupon, and then the second oscillator signal F can be changed by VCO module 130 2frequency.As a result, by adjustment control signal S ccurrent potential, the first oscillator signal F can be changed simultaneously 1with the second oscillator signal F 2frequency, and then change the frequency of feedback signal Fo and phase place.After repeating above-mentioned adjustment, the frequency of feedback signal Fo and phase place can level off to the frequency of input signal Fref and phase place, finally reach the locking of output signal Fout and feedback signal Fo
It must be appreciated, because coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120 has the progressive frequency range reduced, therefore feedback signal Fo correctly can be locked in specific frequency again rapidly by phase-locked loop circuit 100.Below will describe its principle in detail.
Lock in the frequency of feedback signal Fo and the process of phase place at phase-locked loop circuit 100, the reaction speed of its locking is relevant with the frequency range of coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120.When the frequency range of coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120 is larger, the locking reaction speed of phase-locked loop circuit 100 is slower, but the frequency accuracy of locking is then lower.Otherwise, when coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120 frequency range more hour, the locking reaction speed of phase-locked loop circuit 100 is faster, but has higher accuracy.
In the present embodiment, after phase-locked loop circuit 100 comes into operation, the frequency range of coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120 is set as reducing progressively.Thus, entering the line-locked initial stage at phase-locked loop circuit 100 to feedback signal Fo, because coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120 has larger frequency range, the frequency of feedback signal Fo can be first adjusted near the frequency of input signal Fref rapidly.Next, entering line-locked latter stage at phase-locked loop circuit 100 to feedback signal Fo, because coarse adjustment low pass filter module 120 has less frequency range, the frequency of feedback signal Fo can be adjusted to the frequency of input signal Fref exactly.As a result, feedback signal Fo correctly can be locked in specific frequency again rapidly by phase-locked loop circuit 100.
It should be noted that the thin portion structure shown in Fig. 1 only makes the purposes of an example explanation.Other all different circuit all can adopt to realize VCO module 130, as long as can according to control signal S cwith filtering signal S fand produce two oscillator signals, and produce output signal Fout according to these two oscillator signals again.
