US Patent 7728644 Skew compensation circuit

The present invention describes a skew compensation circuit that can compensate for changes in signal skew in response to changes in external environments and processes. The skew compensation circuit includes a controller for outputting a control signal according to whether an external power supply is supplied and its operation mode. The skew compensation circuit also includes a signal output unit which selects either a normal path or a skew reduction path according to the control signal and outputs an input signal through the selected path.
