  • Patent number: 8653875
    Abstract: Provided is a semiconductor device which inputs an input clock signal of predetermined frequency and outputs a plurality of clock signals of the same frequency, the semiconductor device including: an input unit configured to input the input clock signal of the predetermined frequency; and a delay unit configured to generate a plurality of clock signals of the same frequency by providing predetermined delay time period to the input clock signal to be delayed in order to reduce load applied to a power supply in common with the plurality of the clock signals. According to the semiconductor device, output waveform distortion of the clock signals can be improved even with simple structure.
