A high-level period of each of n first pulse signals partially or wholly overlaps a period during which all of n second pulse signals are at the low level. A high-level period of each of the n second pulse signals partially or wholly overlaps a period during which all of the n first pulse signals are at the low level. Each of n first drive transistors includes a source connected to a ground node, a drain connected to a first node, and a gate receiving a corresponding one of the first pulse signals. Each of n second drive transistors includes a source connected to the ground node, a drain connected to a second node, and a gate receiving a corresponding one of the second pulse signals. A current mirror circuit allows a current corresponding to a current flowing through the second node to flow through the first node.

Each of n level shifters (LS0 to LS7) includes an NMOS transistor (Mn1) for receiving any one of n clock signals (P0 to P7) and a PMOS transistor (Mp1) for receiving an output signal from another level shifter. An output signal given to the PMOS transistor (Mp1) included in each of the level shifters (LS0 to LS7) is an output signal of the level shifter which receives the clock signal whose phase delay amount with respect to the clock signal given to the NMOS transistor (Mn1) included in that level shifter is a phase amount X (0°

摘要:
An oscillator circuit increases and reduces signal levels of first and second oscillation signals in a complementary manner in response to a transition of a signal level of a reference clock. An oscillation control circuit compares each of the signal levels of the first and second oscillation signals to a comparison voltage, and causes the signal level of the reference clock to transition according to results of the comparison. A reference control circuit increases or reduces the comparison voltage so that a difference between a signal level of an intermediate signal which is proportional to respective swings of the first and second oscillation signals and a reference voltage is reduced.
摘要:
In a device for generating a clock signal having a desired phase from input multi-phase clock signals, an intermediate clock generator generates, by using one of the input multi-phase clock signals as a reference clock signal, multi-phase intermediate clock signals in which one cycle is equal to a plurality of cycles of the reference clock signal. A first phase selector selects one of the multi-phase intermediate clock signals. A second phase selector selects one of the multi-phase clock signals. A latch circuit latches the intermediate clock signal selected by the first phase selector with the clock signal selected by the second phase selector.

A transconductor for receiving a differential voltage signal and outputting a differential current signal, includes two transconductors for receiving the differential voltage signal and outputting a single-end current signal. An inversion input terminal of one of the two transconductors is connected with a non-inversion input terminal of the other. The transconductor outputs a current signal output from each of the two transconductors as the differential current signal.
