PHASE-FREQUENCY COMPARATOR AND SERIAL TRANSMISSION DEVICE

Disclosed is a phase-frequency comparator stabilizing a loop band width by a simple circuit, there is provided a phase-frequency comparator which is a phase-frequency comparator of inputting a reference clock and a feedback clock and outputting an up signal to a frequency synthesizer and a down signal to the frequency synthesizer, which is provided with a first phase-frequency comparing circuit, a second phase comparing circuit, and a delay circuit portion inputting the reference clock and the feedback clock and providing a predetermined relative delay to an input of the first phase-frequency comparing circuit and an input of the second phase comparing circuit, in which frequency comparison is carried out by the first phase-frequency comparing circuit, and phase comparison is carried out by the first phase-frequency comparing circuit and the second phase comparing circuit controlling a latch.
