Abstract
An ADPLL includes a digital controlled oscillator, a first counter counting a number of clocks from the digital controlled oscillator, a second counter to count a multiplication number representing a number of the clocks in a reference clock, a TDC detecting a delayed amount of a phase of the clocks against a phase of the reference clock, an adder adding the delayed amount to a difference between the multiplication number and the number of clocks, a slew rate setting part setting a slew rate of the clocks, an ADC receiving the clocks to which the slew rate is set, a switching part switching between an output of the adder and an output of the ADC, and a controller controlling the slew rate by shifting a phase of the clocks to set a slew rate while the ADLL is locked by utilizing the TDC.
