Title:
クロック制御方法及び回路
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4562300
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A novel clock control circuit and method in which phase synchronization with respect to an external clock can be realized without recourse to the external clocks. A clock controlling circuit includes a delay circuit sequence comprised of N stages of units each made up of a first delay circuit 10 and a first interior division circuit 11 for delaying the output signal of the first delay circuit, and a phase difference detection circuit 14 for detecting the clock period and the delay time difference of the delay circuit sequence from the input clock IN and a clock END output by the delay circuit sequence as a phase difference of the two signals. A plural number of second interior division circuits 12, fed with an output signal of the first delay circuit, delays a transition edge of an output signal of the first delay circuit by t2-nxT/N to output the delayed signal. The second interior division circuit outputs a signal which makes transition at a timing delayed nxtCK/N as from the start time point of the clock cycle. A synthesis circuit 13 generates a frequency multiplied clock signal which is obtained on equal division of the clock period tCK of the input clock from the input clock IN and the number 1 to numberN-1 third delays circuit.
