Abstract
A digital phase synchronous circuit includes a phase comparing circuit for outputting a count value according to the result of a phase comparison between an output signal and an externally input reference signal; a frequency regulating circuit for inputting an oscillation signal with a predetermined repetition frequency and controlling the repetition frequency according to the count value to output it as the output signal; and a controlling circuit for controlling the frequency regulating circuit to output the oscillation signal with the predetermined repetition frequency when the input of the reference signal breaks down.
