Abstract
Provided are a skew adjustment circuit and a method thereof. The skew adjustment circuit inputs an input clock signal and an input start pulse signal to output an output clock signal and an output start pulse signal which are delayed according to a skew value of a skew control signal. The skew adjustment circuit includes a delay circuit, a selection circuit, and an output circuit. The delay circuit delays an input clock signal by a skew value in response to a skew control signal to generate an output clock signal. The selection circuit compares the skew control signal and an offset control signal to select one of the input start pulse signal and a delayed start pulse signal to output the selected signal as a start pulse signal. The output circuit responds to the output clock signal to output the start pulse signal as an output start pulse signal.
