Abstract
The present invention discloses a frequency synthesizer, including: a plurality of frequency locking circuits, for locking a plurality of clock signals to output the clock signals according to a plurality of reference clock signals respectively; a selecting circuit, for selecting a specific clock signal from the clock signals as an output clock signal, wherein a specific frequency locking circuit of the frequency locking circuits locks the specific clock signal; and a control circuit, for controlling the frequency locking circuits. The control circuit controls at least one of the frequency locking circuits apart from the specific frequency locking circuit to lock another clock signal according to another reference clock signal at the same time. A related method for frequency synthesizing is also disclosed.
