    摘要: In a semiconductor device of the present invention, a clock is not changed instantaneously but it is changed over maximum N+1/M clocks (N: integer not less than 2) by shifting delay cells stepwisely to make the phase state of a previous reference signal and the phase state of a present reference signal coincide with each other, whereby the clock is synchronized with the reference signal with accuracy, and the duty of the output clock is kept constant. According to the semiconductor device of the present invention, it is possible to prevent the duty of the clock from being discontinuous when a signal whose reference signal does not coincide with the clock is inputted and reset is made to a rising edge of this reference signal.

    摘要: A noise shaping processing part performs noise shaping processing on pixel data. An adding circuit performs accumulative adding processing on the noise-shaped pixel data. A first bit-shift part performs bit-shift processing on the accumulatively-added and noise-shaped pixel data. A second bit-shift part performs bit-shift processing on unprocessed pixel data. An inter-pixel subtracting circuit calculates a gradation level difference between neighboring current pixel and previous pixel in a horizontal direction in the unprocessed pixel data. A boundary judging circuit judges presence of a boundary between a low-gradation area and a high-gradation area in the horizontal direction of the unprocessed pixel data, based on a comparison between the gradation level difference and a prescribed threshold value. A selecting circuit selects an output of the first bit-shift part when the boundary judging circuit judges there is no boundary, and selects an output of the second bit-shift part when judged there is a boundary.

    摘要: An object of the present invention is to provide a signal processor which improves the offset accuracy of a video signal without increasing the number of bits of a circuit.An N-bit adder (103) adds a video signal (S101) and an upper-N-bit signal of a brightness control signal (S102) as an offset value. A 1-bit pulse generator (107) generates a 1-bit pulse signal (S107) in which “1” and “0” have equal chances of appearing at random. A selector (106) selects the 1-bit pulse signal (S107) when the LSB of the brightness control signal (S102) is “1”, while selects a ground level “0” when the LSB is “0”, and supplies the selected signal to a carry input of the N-bit adder (103).
