Method and device for calibrating clock frequency

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a method and a device for calibrating a clock frequency. The device comprises a clock detection circuit, a calibration circuit, and a parameter-adjustable oscillator. The clock detection circuit is used for counting clock signals output by the parameter adjustable oscillator at regular time to obtain a count value, judging the absolute value of the difference between the calculated count value and an expected count value is larger than or equal to a preset threshold value or not, and outputting a first enable signal to the calibration circuit to control the calibration circuit to enter a working state. The calibration circuit is used for receiving the first enable signal so as to enter the working state, outputting a control signal to the parameter-adjustable oscillator according to the obtained count value, and driving the parameter-adjustable oscillator to adjust the frequency of the clock signals. The parameter-adjustable oscillator is usedfor outputting the outputted clock signals to the clock detection circuit and other clock signal-based circuits, and adjusting the frequency of the clock signals according to the control signal. According to the embodiment of the invention, the influence of the change of the ambient environment and the application temperature on the clock frequency of the oscillator is reduced. The precision of the frequency of the oscillator is improved, and the power consumption is reduced.

Description
