13




b,


the filter circuit

is added to the input of the loop filter

, so that the filter circuit

is lower than that of the loop filter


12


, that is, the passband of the filter circuit

is narrower than that of the loop filter


12


. Then, when the switch

, so that the PLL feedback loop is provided.




The frequency dividing circuit


10


, in the first mode, effects the integer frequency dividing operation and in the second mode, effects the fraction frequency dividing operation such that the oscillation signal is divided by a fraction.




More specifically, the frequency dividing circuit


10


includes the frequency divider


15


and a dividing control circuit

. The dividing control circuit


11


includes an accumulator


103


having an adder


101


and a latch


102


.




The dividing control circuit


11


controls a divisor D for the frequency divider

to provide the fraction frequency dividing operation in the second mode such that the divisor D is varied periodically to equivalently provide a fraction of the divisor.





FIG. 3

Assuming that a period 1/fr of the frequency reference signal


1




c


is one clock CLK, the divisor D varies from the integer M to M+1 every L clocks (interval T), so that an average of the divisor D for the interval T is given by M+1/L. The fraction term 1/L can be treated as k/L and k is varied such that k=0, 1, 2, . . . , so that the divisor D can be set every step of 1/L. Then, the average divisor Mave is given by:






Mave=


M+k/L


(0


≦k≦L, k


is an integer)  (1)






This operation is provided by the accumulator


103

101


and a latch


102


. In

FIG. 2

, a value in the adder


101


increases by k every clock CLK which is the frequency reference signal


1




c


and when the adder overflows, the adder


101


supplies an overflow signal +1 to the frequency divider, and the divisor D becomes M+1. If the adder does not supply the overflow signal +1, the divisor D maintains the integer M.




This fraction frequency dividing operation expands the cutoff angular frequency ωn of the loop, so that the multiband PLL frequency synthesizer of the first embodiment can operate at a higher speed than one that only had the integer frequency dividing operation.




Moreover, a combination of variation in the low-pass filter


3


and the variation in the frequency dividing circuit


10


, that is, the combination of narrow passband and wide passband in the low-pass filter


3


and the integer frequency dividing operation and the fraction frequency dividing operation can provide three cutoff angular frequencies ωn of the loop as shown in TABLE 1.

As shown in table 1, the voltage controlled oscillator output can be controlled by controlling only the cutoff frequency or controlled by switching the frequency dividing operation, or by a combination of the two. Moreover, as shown in table 1, it is possible that the oscillation signal is outputted from the voltage controlled oscillator at a plurality of frequency bands which may be intermittently arranged in the frequency base or may be continued in the frequency base.




As mentioned, the frequency of the local oscillation signal can be varied over a relatively wider range stably by adaptively varying the feedback loop condition, that is, the cutoff angular frequency and the frequency dividing operation, i.e., the integer frequency dividing operation and the fraction frequency dividing operation.




A second embodiment will be described.





FIG. 4

is a block diagram of a multiband PLL frequency synthesizer of the second embodiment.




The multiband PLL frequency synthesizer of the second embodiment is substantially the same as that of the first embodiment. The difference is that a voltage controlled oscillation circuit


14


is used instead of the voltage controlled oscillator


4


.





FIG. 5

is a block diagram of a voltage controlled oscillation circuit


14


shown in FIG.


4


.

FIG. 6

is an illustration of the second embodiment showing an example of using the multiband PLL frequency synthesizer of the second embodiment.




The voltage controlled oscillation circuit


14


includes a plurality of oscillation circuits


201


and


202


. The local oscillation signal is outputted from one of a plurality of the oscillation circuits


201


and


202


in accordance with an oscillation control signal


13




d


from the control circuit


13


. That is, the control circuit


13


further generates the oscillation control signal


13




d


in accordance with the frequency command signal


16


.




The oscillation circuit


201


is used to oscillate at a range over two different frequency bands A and B. The oscillation circuit


202


is used to oscillate at further different frequency band C, wherein one of oscillation circuits


201


and


202


is operated in response to supplying a power Vcc via a switch


204


. An amplifier


203


amplifies the output of either of the oscillation circuit


201


or


202


to output the local oscillation signal.




The oscillation circuit


201


is used to generate the local oscillation signal at either of frequency band A or B and the oscillation circuit


202


generates the local oscillation signal at a frequency band C. Therefore, the frequency of the local oscillation signal from the local oscillation circuit


14


is at either of the frequency band A, B, or C.




Table 2 shows designing data of the multiband PLL frequency synthesizer of the second embodiment.

As shown in table 2, in the oscillation circuit


201


, the oscillation frequency band is wide, so that VCO controlling sensitivity is different, that is, it is 120 at the frequency band A and it is 80 at the frequency band B because a linearity of a variable capacitance diode (not shown) used in the oscillation circuit


201


is not maintained between the frequency bands A and B.




Moreover, because the loop gains K at respective frequency bands are different each other, if the reference frequency is constant and the cutoff frequency is not changed, it is difficult to provide the same characteristics at respective frequency bands A, B, and C.




More specifically, at frequency band C where the loop gain is lowest, the cutoff angular frequency ωn is low and increases in the order of the frequency band B and frequency band A. Then, similar to the first embodiment, the passband of the loop filter is varied and the frequency of frequency reference signal is varied (the frequency dividing mode is changed) every frequency bands to provide three cutoff angular frequencies ωn in only one PLL loop to optimize the PLL loop every frequency band.




Determination of respective constants in the multiband PLL synthesizer of the second embodiment will be described.




At first, in

FIG. 4

, the switch


9


is opened to put the low-pass filter in a broad band mode and the integer frequency dividing operation, that is, the first mode, is set. In this condition, respective constants in the loop filter


12


are determined to obtain a desired characteristic at the frequency band B where the loop gain is second largest. Then, with the frequency dividing mode maintained, that is in the first mode, the switch


9


is closed to put the low-pass filter


3


in a narrow band mode and then, constants of the capacitors


5


and


6


, and the resistor


7


in the filter circuit


8


are determined to provide a desired characteristic at the frequency band A where the loop gain is largest. Finally, the switch


9


is opened, to provide the filter circuit


3


in a wide band condition, and then, the value of L supplied to the dividing control circuit


11


is determined at the frequency band C where the loop gain in smallest in the fraction frequency dividing operation mode, that is, the second mode.




As mentioned, at the frequency band where the loop gain is large, the reference frequency (frequency dividing mode) and the passbands of the low-pass filter


3


are determined to make the cutoff angular frequency ωn lower. On the other hand, at the frequency band where the loop gain is small, the reference frequency (frequency dividing mode) and the passbands of the low-pass filter


3


are determined to make the cutoff angular frequency ωn higher, so that only one PLL loop can provide substantially the same characteristic at respective frequency bands.
