Abstract
A variable delay circuit includes: a first delay section that changes a first drive capability or a first capacity load, receives the reference signals, and generates a first delayed signal by giving a first delay to the reference signal; a second delay section that changes a second drive capability or a second capacity load of the second delay section, receives the reference signal, and generates a second delayed signal by giving a second delay to the reference signal; a first capacity load setting section that sets at least one of the first capacity load and the second capacity load; a first phase comparing section that compares a first phase of the first delayed signal with a second phase of the second delayed signal; and a drive capability setting section that controls the first drive capability and the second drive capability.
