Glitchless clock output circuit and the method for the same

摘要

A circuit and a method for generating a variable delay clock without glitches are provided. A DLL clock output circuit comprises a selection circuit. A plurality of select signals selectively switch the corresponding clock delay lines to be the output signal by the selection circuit. Each of the select signals traverses through a delay switching circuit to adaptively delay the time points at which the select signals switch the clock delay lines to the output signal, so as to produce a glitchless variable delay clock signal.
