Abstract

A duty cycle correction circuit includes a first duty cycle detecting circuit configured to detect a duty cycle of a clock signal with a first resolution; a reference clock generating circuit configured to generate a reference clock signal by adjusting a phase of the clock signal; a second duty cycle detecting circuit configured to detect a duty cycle of the clock signal with a second resolution according to the reference clock signal and the clock signal, the second resolution being finer than the first resolution; a first duty cycle adjusting circuit configured to adjust the duty cycle of the clock signal according to one or more first control signals output from the first duty cycle detecting circuit; and a second duty cycle adjusting circuit configured to adjust the duty cycle of the clock signal according to one or more second control signals output from the second duty cycle detecting circuit.
