A scalable DLL (delay locked loop) circuit that has a calibration mechanism to auto tune locking precision. The delay locked loop circuit includes a multi-phase phase locked loop circuit for generating a plurality of phase signals according to a system clock, wherein one of the phase signals is a pixel clock; a phase detector for detecting an integral phase error and a fractional phase error between a reference signal and a feedback signal according to the pixel clock; a phase selector for selecting one of the phase signals according to the fractional phase error; and a delay circuit for shifting the phase of the reference signal according to the integral phase error and the selected phase signal to generate an output signal.
