A clock generation system for generating a first-, a second-, and a third-reference frequency clocks having respective frequencies having predetermined ratios to the reference frequency of a reference clock, using PL circuits in such a way that the clocks have sufficient S/N ratios in spite of the S/N ratio limitation by the noise floor. A first reference frequency clock is supplied to a first PLL circuit to generate an intermediate-frequency clock having an intermediate frequency having a predetermined ratio to the reference clock. The intermediate-frequency clock is supplied to a second and a third PLL circuits to generate a second and a third reference frequency clocks having frequencies respectively having a second and a third ratios to the intermediate frequency, respectively.

A clock input/output device has three-state inverters Iv1 to Iv3 and an inverter Iv4, which cooperate to make equal the on-state resistance through a supply-voltage-side (VDD-side) transistor and the on-state resistance through a ground-voltage-side (0-side) transistor so as to make equal to VDD/2 the threshold voltage with reference to which the clock input/output device evaluates the input thereto to determine whether or not to change the state of the output thereof.

In generating a frequency-modulated clock, a first frequency modulation (FM) signal having frequency fm1 is frequency-modulated by a second FM signal having a second frequency fm2, generating a clock modulation signal fm0. The clock generation signal fm0 is used to frequency-modulate the system clock CLK by the clock modulation signal fm0. Thus, the spectrum of the clock is doubly dispersed by the first and the second FM frequencies. As a result, peak levels at the fundamental and higher harmonic frequencies are reduced as compared with conventional clock generation device.

A constant voltage output device has a field-effect transistor and a comparator. Between the output electrode of the field-effect transistor and ground, a first resistor, a second resistor, and a first diode are connected in series. Moreover, between the output electrode of the field-effect transistor and ground, a third resistor and a second diode are connected in series. The comparator compares the voltage at the node between the first and second resistors with the voltage at the node between the third resistor and the second diode, and feeds the comparison result to the gate of the field-effect transistor. At an output terminal appears a desired voltage that is determined by the ratio between the current capacities of the first and second diodes and by the ratio between the resistances of the first and second resistors.

A frequency-divided reference frequency clock is provided as a reference input to a phase comparator. An oscillation frequency signal of a controllable oscillator, having a frequency associated with another reference frequency clock, is frequency divided by a frequency division factor switching type comparison-input frequency division circuit. The resultant frequency-divided clock is provided as a comparison input to the phase comparator. The frequency division factor of the comparison-input frequency division circuit is switched from one to another based on a frequency division factor control signal to generate an oscillation frequency signal having a predetermined frequency ratio relative to another reference frequency clock. Thus, three reference frequency clocks of 27 MHz, 33.8688 MHz, and 36.864 MHz in accord with the MPEG format are obtained with a sufficient S/N ratio.
