Abstract

A phase frequency detection circuit of a phase locked loop (PLL) for liquid crystal display which compares a phase between an external synchronous signal and an internal synchronous signal from the PLL to generate a phase difference detection signal, including: a dividing circuit for dividing the external synchronous signal and the horizontal synchronous signal; a phase difference detecting circuit for detecting the phase difference between the divided external synchronous signal and the divided horizontal synchronous signal from the dividing circuit; a phase discriminating circuit for discriminating whether the divided external synchronous signal is ahead of the divided horizontal synchronous signal and generating the phase discriminating signal; and a comparison device for receiving the phase difference detection signal from the phase difference detection circuit and the phase discriminating signal from the phase discriminating circuit to generate the phase frequency difference signal.
