Abstract: A frequency divider circuit includes: a first frequency dividing circuit configured to divide a first clock signal to generate a first frequency-divided clock signal; a second frequency dividing circuit configured to divide a second clock signal having the same frequency as the first clock signal and having a first phase difference with respect to the first clock signal to generate a second frequency-divided clock signal; a detection circuit configured to detect a phase relationship between the first frequency-divided clock signal and the second frequency-divided clock signal; and a selection circuit configured to select and output one of the second frequency-divided clock signal and an inverted signal of the second frequency-divided clock signal which are generated by the second frequency dividing circuit, based on the phase relationship between the first frequency-divided clock signal and the second frequency-divided clock signal detected by the detection circuit.

Abstract: In a differential amplifier circuit, a differential amplifier circuit unit includes: first and second transistors provided between a current source circuit and a load circuit, which receives differential input signals at gates to generate differential output signals at drains; and a third transistor connected between sources of the first and second transistors, which receives a control signal at a gate. A replica amplifier circuit unit includes: a voltage generation circuit which generates first and second reference voltages; first and second replica transistors which receives the first and second reference voltages at gates to generate replica output signals at drains; a third replica transistor connected between sources of the first and second replica transistors, which receives the control signal at a gate; and an operational amplifier which generates the control signal according to a difference between at least one of the first and second reference voltages and the replica output signal.

Abstract: There are an amplifier circuit which includes a first current source that is connected to a power supply line to which a first electric potential is supplied, a differential input circuit that is connected between the first current source and a first node and configured to receive a differential input signal, a second current source that is connected between a power supply line to which a second electric potential is supplied and the first node, and a load circuit that is connected between a power supply line to which the first electric potential is supplied and a second node, and an inductor circuit is further connected between the first node and the second node. Thereby, the amplifier circuit achieves both lower voltage and linearity.

Abstract: A frequency divider circuit includes: a first latch circuit that including: a pair of input transistors each having a gate thereof configured to connect to a signal line to which a first voltage is supplied; and a pair of output nodes, and configured to receive a single-phase clock signal; and a second latch circuit of SR-type, the second latch circuit having a set input thereof and a reset input thereof configured to connect to the pair of output nodes of the first latch circuit, and configured to output differential clock signals of which frequency is half a frequency of the single-phase clock signal. The first latch circuit is configured to perform amplification and reset operations alternately repeatedly in response to the single-phase clock signal.
