Abstract: A multiple-modulus divider and an associated control method are provided. The multiple-modulus divider includes a divisor loader, a multiple-modulus dividing circuit and a modulus controller. The divisor loader downloads a divisor when a download signal indicates a start of a division period. The multiple-modulus circuit includes a plurality of cascaded divisors, and provides an output frequency according to an input frequency and the divisor. The dividers respectively output a plurality of modulus output signals, and each is operable under either a close-loop state or an open-loop state. The modulus controller selects and controls one of the dividers according to the divisor, and ensures the selected divider is maintained at the open-loop state when the division period ends. The download signal corresponds to one of the modulus output signals.

Abstract: A multi-modulus divider and a method for performing frequency dividing by utilizing a multi-modulus divider are disclosed. The multi-modulus divider comprises a multi-modulus dividing circuit, a pulse generating circuit, and a modulus signal generating circuit. The multi-modulus dividing circuit comprises several serially connected divider cells, of which a predetermined one may be bypassed. The multi-modulus dividing circuit generates an output frequency according to an input frequency and a divisor. A range of the divisor comprises a plurality of numerical intervals. The pulse generating circuit generates a pulse signal. The modulus signal generating circuit generates a determination result by determining which numerical interval the divisor belongs to, and inputs, according to the determination result, the pulse signal into the predetermined divider cell to be one of references which the predetermined divider cell refers to when outputting a modulus signal. The predetermined divider cell corresponds to the determination result.

Abstract: A phase locked loop and an associated alignment method are provided. A disclosed phase locked loop receives a reference signal to provide a feedback signal. The phase locked loop is first opened. When the phase locked loop is open, a frequency range of an oscillating signal from a voltage-controlled oscillator is substantially selected. The feedback signal is provided according to the oscillation signal. After the frequency range is selected, the phase locked loop is kept open and the phases of the reference signal and the feedback signal are substantially aligned. The phase locked loop is then closed after the reference signal and the feedback signal are aligned.
