Digital DLL circuit

1. A digital DLL circuit comprising:

a first register configured to hold a first delay specifying value to specify a delay value of a rising edge side of a signal;

a second register configured to hold a second delay specifying value to specify a delay value of a falling edge side of a signal;

a digitally-controlled variable delay circuit configured to be allowed to individually control delays of a rise side and a fall side of a signal;

a control circuit configured to implement control so that a rise-side delay and a fall-side delay by the variable delay circuit are kept at the first delay specifying value of the first register and the second delay specifying value of the second register, respectively;

a third register configured to hold a delay target value; and

a digitally-controlled second variable delay circuit,

wherein the control circuit is configured to subject a reference signal and the delay target value of the third register to an arithmetic operation, and supply the second variable delay circuit with a result of the arithmetic operation as a delay control value.

2. The digital DLL circuit according to claim 1 , wherein

the control circuit calculates delay control values of a rise side and a fall side of a signal for the variable delay circuit based on a reference signal and the first and second delay specifying values, and the control circuit supplies the calculated delay control values to the variable delay circuit.

3. The digital DLL circuit according to claim 1 , wherein

a delayed output from the second variable delay circuit is supplied as an input to the digitally-controlled variable delay circuit.
