Abstract
In a duty adjustment circuit, a clock signal is frequency-divided to ½by a frequency divider. In a first frequency doubler among n cascade-connected frequency doublers, the divided clock signal is delayed by a variable delay portion according to a control signal. The exclusive logical sum of the delayed signal and the divided clock signal in the frequency-doubling portion doubles the frequency. The average voltage of the frequency-doubled signal is detected by an average value detection portion, and is compared with a reference voltage by a comparison control portion. A control signal is fed back to the variable delay portion to cause the average voltage to become equal to the reference voltage. In this manner, a clock signal is generated from the last frequency doubler with frequency equal to that of the original clock signal, and with duty ratio adjusted to a desired value.
