Abstract
A delay lock loop is provided. A delay unit delays a first clock signal to generate a second clock signal according to the delay factor. An elimination unit delays a third clock signal to generate a fourth clock signal. A phase detection unit generates an indication signal according to a phase difference between the second and fourth clock signals. When a duration of the indication signal being at a first level does not arrive at a pre-determined value and the indication signal is at a second level, the control unit increases the delay factor. When the duration of the indication signal being at the first level arrives at the pre-determined value and the indication signal is at the second level, the control unit reduces the delay factor.
