Abstract
A clock generation circuitincludes a resonant reactor connected with a half voltage supply point TV, a resonant capacitor CL connected between a ground voltage supply point TVss and an output terminal TVout, a transistor MPconnected between the resonant reactor Lr and the resonant capacitor CL, and a transistor MNconnected with the output terminal TVout. In this configuration, signals in a wide range of frequencies can be output with low power consumption by adjusting the time when a clock signal φ1 applied to the gates of the transistors MPand MNis high.
