A spread spectrum clock generator includes a triangular modulator, a delta sigma modulator, a frequency divider, and a phase lock loop. The triangular modulator generates a digital modulation signal, representing a decimal, according to a digital parallel signal, in which the spread amount is in proportion to the digital parallel signal. The delta sigma modulator, electrically connected to the triangular modulator, generates a divider divisor, including the decimal and an integer, according to the digital modulation signal. The frequency divider divides the frequency of the output signal clock according to the divider divisor to generate a divided clock signal, in which the frequency of the divided clock signal is substantially equal to a quotient result from dividing the frequency of the output clock signal with the divider divisor. The phase lock loop adjusts the frequency of the output clock signal according to the divided clock signal and a reference clock signal.
