    Abstract: A data transmission device includes a control unit and a delay chain unit. The control unit outputs a first control signal through an nth control signal, where n is a natural number. The delay chain unit includes a first switching element through an nth switching element. The switching elements receive a first data signal through an nth data signal and perform pipelining operations on the first through nth data signals based upon the first through nth control signals, respectively, to output the pipelined data signals as at least one data stream. The switching elements are connected to each other to form at least one data delay chain.

    Abstract: A temperature sensor includes a band gap reference (BGR) circuit, a voltage generation unit and a digital CDS circuit. The band gap reference (BGR) circuit generates a reference voltage proportional to a temperature. The voltage generation unit generates a first voltage and a second voltage based on the reference voltage, where the first voltage and the second voltage are proportional to the temperature. The digital CDS circuit generates a digital signal corresponding to the temperature by performing a digital correlated double sampling (CDS) operation on the first voltage and the second voltage. The temperature sensor is able to detect a temperature accurately.
