Abstract

A circuit apparatus includes: a first oscillation circuit configured to generate a first clock signal; a PLL circuit including a second oscillation circuit configured to generate a second clock signal and a frequency control voltage generation circuit configured to generate a frequency control voltage for controlling a frequency of the second clock signal, the PLL circuit being configured to synchronize a phase of the second clock signal with a phase of the first clock signal; and a failure detection circuit configured to monitor the frequency control voltage and detect whether there is a possibility that the frequency control voltage deviates from a predetermined voltage range in which the second oscillation circuit is capable of operating normally.
