COMPLEMENTARY SIGNAL GENERATION CIRCUIT AND SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE COMPRISING SAME

摘要

A complementary signal generation circuit includes a first transmission path including a first number N of inverters and a second transmission path including a second number (N-1) of inverters. A delay circuit composed of a first resistance element and a capacity element is arranged in series between two inverters in the second transmission path so as to correspond to any one of the inverters in the first transmission path. The capacity element is formed by a capacitive inverter having the same input capacity ratio as the any one of the inverters. The complementary signal generation circuit generates output signals having the logic levels which are complementary to each other through the first and second transmission paths.
