| 20090051450 | CLOCK GENERATION CIRCUIT AND CLOCK GENERATION CONTROL CIRCUIT - According to a preferred embodiment, a clock signal generation circuit includes an oscillating circuit configured to output a clock signal having a clock frequency corresponding to a control signal, a counter configured to generate a count value by counting a pulse number of the clock signal outputted from the oscillating circuit during a predetermined time period, a subtracting circuit configured to produce differential data by subtracting the count value from a preset value previously set based on a predetermined clock frequency, a control signal correcting circuit configured to generate a correcting control signal by correcting a value of the control signal based on the differential data, and a digital-analog converter circuit configured to convert the correcting control signal into an analog correcting control signal and output the converted analog correcting control signal to the oscillating circuit. This clock signal generation circuit can prevent increasing of the circuit size or the system size due to a resistor, a capacitor element, etc., used in a PLL (Phase Locked Loop) without using a central processing unit. | 02-26-2009 |
