Title:
VARIABLE DELAY CIRCUIT
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3045092
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a circuit suitable for high speed operation environment by avoiding deterioration due to noise from being given to a signal waveform and to provide the circuit with low power consumption and a high degree of circuit integration where the number of variable stages is increased and a large delay time is obtained.
SOLUTION: The circuit is so configured that the length of branched lines in signal lines is very short regardless of any setting of a variable stage number. More concretely, a plurality of delay sections (DL1-DL3) are connected in series via transfer gates (PT1-PT3) each consisting of a P-channel MOS TR, and a main input terminal N1 and output terminals of each delay section are connected to a main output terminal NO via transfer gates (NT1-NT4) each consisting of an N-channel MOS TR.
