ABSTRACT:
A phase lock loop timing generator including a voltage controlled oscillator as a current-limited ring oscillator composed of multistage inverters connected in series in a ring form using a phase lock loop. From nodes of the inverters, .phi.0 to .phi.8 signals are obtained and an AND or OR of the signals are calculated to generate an internal timing. The obtained timing pulse is defined by % of a clock cycle of a reference clock signal and thus a timing depending on an external cycle can be set. Further, a timing prior to the clock edge of the reference clock signal can be generated and by using this timing, an effective current cut of an input buffer can be performed. Hence, timing generation proportional to the external clock cycle without being affected by a production process or the like provides a flexible timing design.
