摘要:
It is an object to obtain a semiconductor device capable of changing a delay time of an output signal of a PLL circuit with respect to an external clock signal after installed in a system. An external clock signal is inputted to an input terminal (1.) An address value is inputted to an input terminal (3.) A decoder (9) selects one of a plurality of delay times in a voltage-controlled oscillator (8) according to the address value. The phase of a signal outputted to an output terminal (2) is delayed with respect to the external clock signal at the input terminal (1) by the delay time selected. Accordingly, it is possible to change the delay time of the output signal of the PLL circuit with respect to the external clock signal after installation in a system.

A first pseudo random number generating circuit sequentially provides an output signal to a matching detecting circuit in response to a clock signal. A second pseudo random number generating circuit generates an initial value, and then, sequentially provides an output signal to a storage device in response to an output signal from the matching detecting circuit and the clock signal. Data with the output signal as an address is provided as an output signal from the storage device. When the matching detecting circuit detects matching between the output signals, the matching detecting circuit provides the output signals to the second pseudo random number generating circuit and an AND logic circuit. As described above, when the output signal of the matching detecting circuit is provided, the output signals from the storage device are provided as respective output control signals.
摘要:
A selecting circuit is formed of two tristate gates. The size of each of a plurality of transistors configuring a tristate gate processing a signal having a shorter delay time is set smaller than the size of each of a plurality of transistors configuring a tristate gate processing a signal having a longer delay time, so that the capacitance of the former transistors is decreased. As a result, the load to be driven by each of transistors to which a signal having a longer delay time is applied is decreased, whereby the entire circuit can be increased in operation speed. Accordingly, the selecting circuit selecting between two or more input signals having different delay times can operate at a high speed.
