Abstract: A clock generation circuit includes a delay chain configured to generate an N-number of clock signals at a frequency multiple that is M-times the frequency of a reference clock signal. To generate the clock signals at the frequency multiple, a multiplexer selectively inputs, to the delay chain, a delayed reference clock signal and a last clock signal generated by a last delay cell of the delay chain.
