Abstract

A circuit for providing a plurality of clock signals of differing frequencies includes: a phase locked loop section including a first voltage controller oscillator, connected to receive a reference clock value and generate therefrom a first voltage level, wherein the first voltage controller oscillator receives the first voltage level and generates therefrom a first clock signal; and one or more second voltage controller oscillators, each connected to receive the first voltage level, a corresponding trim value and a corresponding control voltage and derive therefrom a corresponding second clock signal.
