Abstract

A phase locked loop circuit and a semiconductor device are provided. The phased locked loop circuit includes a reference current generator configured to generate a summed compensation current in which at least one of a process change, a temperature change or a power supply voltage change are compensated and output the summed compensation current as a reference current, a current digital-to-analog converter configured to convert the reference current into a control current in accordance with a digital code and a voltage control oscillator configured to generate a signal based on the control current, wherein the summed compensation current is based on weighted-averaging a first type compensation current and a second type compensation current in response to at least one of the process change, the temperature change or the power supply voltage change.
