Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a circuit for compensating the difference between gate- source voltages of two MOS transistors of different types, caused by processing or a temperature change. SOLUTION: This circuit is provided characteristically with 1st and a 2nd transistors(TRs) Mp, Mn, 3rd and 4-th MOS TRs Mp1, Mn1 that are of the same type as that of the TRs Mp, Mn and formed in the same device, a means that biases the 3rd and 4-th Mp1, Mn1, a means consisting of Trs Mp4-Mp7 that measures a difference between the gate-source voltages of the 3rd and 4-th MOS TRs Mp1, Mn1, a means R1 that generates a compensation current I0 which is a function of the measured difference, and means S1-S3 and an Ro that use the compensation current I0 to change a bias of the 1st MOS TR Mp and the 2nd MOS TR Mn.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a delay locked loop circuit provided with a delay line provided with delay capable of being changed by a controlled method and a control circuit means for controlling the delay line so as to lock the delay line to a period T for delaying the periodic input signals of the period T. SOLUTION: The delay line 1 supplies plural delay cyclic signals CK1-CKN respectively delayed relating to the periodic input signals only for one part each of the delay. The control circuit means 2 and 7 are provided with a sequence detection circuit means 2 capable of periodically detecting the characteristic sequence of a digital value for indicating the delay by the delayed periodic signals and the delay Δt is reduced or increased so as to be locked to the period T corresponding to the type of the characteristic sequence.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem of interference between two clock signals by providing a first circuit means for supplying a local timing signal and a second circuit means suitable for deciding a repeating timing signal which is selected in advance and which nearly synchronized with the first flow of digital data. SOLUTION: A synchronizing means is provided with a first circuit means (delay fixing loop circuit) 8 and a second circuit means 6. The circuit 8 is supplied with a local timing signal CK in order to generate a plurality of repeating timing signals CK1-CKn, which start from the signal CK and are mutually delayed by the fraction of one period. The means 6 is supplied with the first flow (RX, RXEQ) of digital data and supplied with the signals CK1-CKn to be suited to deciding a repeating timing signal CKR which is selected in advance and which nearly synchronizes with the first flow (RX, RXEQ) of the digital data in the plurality of timing signals.

Abstract: A delay-locked loop circuit ("DLL") comprises a delay line (1) with a delay ( DELTA t) which can be varied in a controlled manner in order to delay a periodic input signal (CKin) of period T, and circuit means (2, 7) for controlling the delay line (1) in order to lock the delay ( DELTA t) to the period T. The delay line (1) supplies to the control circuit means (2, 7) a plurality of periodic signals (CK1-CKN) each delayed relative to the periodic input signal by a respective fraction of the delay ( DELTA t), and the control circuit means (2, 7) comprise sequence-detector circuit means (2) which can periodically detect, in the delayed signals, characteristic sequences of digital values indicative of the delay ( DELTA t) and, in dependence on the type of characteristic sequence, can bring about a reduction or an increase in the delay ( DELTA t) for locking to the period T.

Abstract: The generator includes complementary MOS transistors interconnected in four circuit branches one of which contains a constant-current generator. Voltages picked up at various nodes of the circuit can be used as reference and/or biasing voltages of the integrated circuit, which account for the variability of the manufacturing parameters.
