Abstract
A clock generation circuit for generating clocks having a plurality of frequencies by which a suitable frequency for each task can be supplied such that the power consumption is reduced. A clock generation unit is provided for generating a clock with a constant frequency, with a counter operating in synchronization with the clock for counting pulses of the clock, a comparator for comparing a counter value of the counter with the number of pulses of a clock having a desired frequency, and an output gate for controlling the supply and stopping of pulses of the clock input from the clock generation unit based on a comparison result of the comparator.
