A dual-tracking phase-locked loop circuit is provided for moving with minimum disruption from conventional PLL operation to processor-controlled tracking of another closely related clock. In addition to conventional PLL components the circuit comprises a processor-controlled up/down counter which may operate alternatively as a link in the loop or as providing the base-line frequency determining value at the time of transition from PLL to processor-controlled tracking operation, thereby ensuring none disruptive transition.
