Abstract
A method for detecting frequency offset of an oscillator includes: receiving an oscillation signal having an oscillation frequency; generating a self-mixing signal according to the oscillation signal; performing frequency division upon the self-mixing signal to obtain a down-converted self-mixing signal; obtaining a down-converted self-mixing frequency corresponding to a maximum power in a specific frequency range of the down-converted self-mixing signal; and computing a frequency offset of the oscillation frequency according to at least the oscillation frequency and the down-converted self-mixing frequency. A related circuit is also disclosed.
