Abstract
A setting data output circuit () is configured to update setting data in synchronization with a frequency divided signal output from a dual modulus frequency divider on a last stage out of the dual modulus frequency dividers to which a non-significant reset signal is output from a reset circuit () which are included in a plurality of dual modulus frequency dividers (-and-) in a first frequency divider group (). As a result, when a frequency dividing ratio of the dual modulus frequency divider on the last stage out of valid dual modulus frequency dividers contributing to frequency dividing operation is 3, it is possible to realize normal frequency dividing operation even in a case in which frequency dividing ratio setting data to decrease the number of valid dual modulus frequency dividers contributing to the frequency dividing operation is provided.
