Original Abstract Submitted
A voltage setting circuit includes a frequency comparator that compares the oscillation frequencies of a first distributed voltage-controlled oscillator and a second distributed voltage-controlled oscillator and a frequency determination circuit that determines the levels of the oscillation frequencies of the first distributed voltage-controlled oscillator and the second distributed voltage-controlled oscillator. The bias to be supplied to the first distributed voltage-controlled oscillator and the bias to be supplied to the second distributed voltage-controlled oscillator are determined in accordance with a result of the determination. The bias at a time when the levels of the oscillation frequencies are reversed is determined to be the optimum bias, and the optimum bias is supplied to the core circuit.
