Abstract
Provided is a digital duty cycle corrector for a multi-phase clock application which includes a flip-flop receiving a signal having a first clock cycle as an input and generating a reference signal having a cycle twice the first clock cycle, a duty corrector generating a signal having a second clock cycle that is half the cycle of the reference signal, from the reference signal, a duty detector measuring an amount of a duty error of the second clock cycle signal and generating a digital code value to control a duty cycle of the second clock cycle signal becomes 50%, and a phase inverter inverting a phase of the second clock cycle signal by 180° such that a rising edge of the second clock cycle signal is always fixed constantly regardless of a duty cycle correction operation.
