Abstract
A delay circuit is interposed between first and second circuit systems both driven by a first supply voltage. The delay circuit delays a signal applied by the first circuit system, and then transmits the delayed signal to the second circuit system. In particular, a constant voltage supply circuit generates a second supply voltage (constant voltage) on the basis of the first supply voltage, and supplies the constant voltage to this delay circuit, so that a stable constant delay time can be obtained by the delay circuit without being subjected to the influence of fluctuations of the first supply voltage. All the circuit elements are formed on the same semiconductor substrate. Further, it is preferable to construct the constant voltage supply circuit in such a way that the output voltage thereof is programmable.
