摘要:
Each delay unit is divided into two delay unit groups, the preceding stage side and the succeeding stage side. To the delay unit group in the preceding stage side, power supply voltage is supplied via a power supply terminal, and to each delay unit of the delay unit group in the succeeding stage side, power supply voltage is supplied from the power supply terminal via a power supply control switch. A forward-pulse detecting circuit detects that forward pulse was propagated to a stage between the N-th stage and a stage a predetermined number of stages before the N-th, and outputs the detected result to the power supply control switch. With this operation, when forward pulse is propagated to the (N+1)th stage, power supply voltage is supplied also to the delay unit group in the succeeding stage side. As electric power is not supplied to the delay unit group in the succeeding stage side when forward pulse is not propagated to the (N+1)th stage, wasteful consumption of electric power is prevented.
