ABSTRACT:
A DLL circuit which can prevent transition to a pseudo lock state is provided. The DLL circuit includes a delay stage to which a reference clock is input and in which variable delay elements D able to change an amount of delay are connected in a plurality of stages, a phase comparator (PH Comp) which compares the phase of the reference clock to the phase of one delay signal extracted from the delay stage, a delay control circuit which performs delay control of the delay element in the delay stage on the basis of the comparison result by the phase-comparison means, and a DFF which detects a phase relationship of at least two delay signals extracted from the delay stage to discriminate a state which is not a normal lock state and controls the delay control circuit to perform state transition to the normal lock state.
