The invention discloses a phase-locked loop
chip, a frequency switching method of the phase-locked loop
chip and display equipment, in the phase-locked loop
chip, a control module configures a reference
clock signal for a phase-locked loop circuit and generates and sends a
clock switching
control signal; the
spread spectrum modulation circuit generates a
frequency modulation step value according to the frequency division coefficient and the modulation coefficient under the control of the
clock switching
control signal; and the phase-locked loop circuit performs frequency adjustment on the feedback
clock signal by using the
frequency modulation step value to generate an output
clock signal, wherein the frequency of the output
clock signal is consistent with that of the reference clock
signal. Because the
frequency modulation step value is determined according to the frequency division coefficient and the modulation coefficient of
spread spectrum modulation, the frequency modulation step value is used for frequency adjustment, so that the lock loss abnormity can be effectively avoided, the
system stability is improved, the
spread spectrum modulation circuit is multiplexed, other devices do not need to be additionally arranged, the chip cost is reduced, and the
power consumption is reduced. And a small-step multi-frequency frequency approximation mode is adopted, so that the frequency
switching time is shortened, and the chip performance is improved.
