Abstract
A PLL circuit for generating an AC output signal synchronized with an AC input signal applied thereto with a phase offset with respect to the input signal includes, in one embodiment, a charge pump circuit capable of varying the phase offset depending on the frequency of the AC input signal. In a signal transmission network system including a plurality of nodes coupled to a signal transmission line and distanced from one another by various repeat lengths of transmission path, each node has a repeater including such PLL circuit to suppress jitter caused by individual repeat length of transmission over the transmission line and still remaining in an equalized AC signal in each node.
