Abstract
A clock distributing apparatus which can decrease the clock skew and can prevent the swing of a signal on clock transmission lines and can achieve a low power consumption, a lower noise of a power supply, and a high speed operation, wherein converts clock signals adjusted in phase to the same phase as a reference clock by a PLL circuit to current signals by voltage/current converters and sends the current signals to clock transmission lines and converts the current signals transmitted to the clock transmission lines to voltage signals by current/voltage converters and sends the voltage signals to circuit blocks of an integrated circuit.
