Abstract
Clock adjustment circuits and clock adjustment methods are provided. The clock adjustment circuit is configured to generate an output clock and includes a phase interpolator, a logic circuit, and an integrator. The phase interpolator is configured to generate by interpolation an intermediate clock according to a first reference clock, a second reference clock, and a control signal. The frequencies of the first reference clock, the second reference clock and the intermediate clock are substantially the same. The logic circuit is coupled to the phase interpolator and configured to generate the output clock according to the intermediate clock and one of the first reference clock and the second reference clock. The integrator is coupled to the phase interpolator and the logic circuit and configured to generate the control signal according to the output clock. The control signal varies with an average based on a duty cycle of the output clock.
