A multiplier has a pair of charge reservoirs. The pair of charge reservoirs are connected in series. A first charge movement device induces charge movement to or from the pair of charge reservoirs at a same rate. A second charge movement device induces charge movement to or from one of the pair of reservoirs, the rate of charge movement programmed to one of add or remove charges at a rate proportional to the first charge movement device. The first charge movement device loads a first charge into a first of the pair of charge reservoirs during a first cycle. The first charge movement device and the second charge movement device remove charges at a proportional rate from the pair of charge reservoirs during a second cycle until the first of the pair of charge reservoirs is depleted of the first charge. The second charge reservoir thereafter holding the multiplied result.

A clock integrated circuit is provided. The clock integrated circuit includes: a first clock generator which includes a crystal oscillator configured to generate a first clock signal; and a second clock generator which includes a resistance-capacitance (RC) oscillator and a first frequency divider, and is configured to: generate a second clock signal using the first frequency divider based on a clock signal output from the RC oscillator; perform a first calibration operation for adjusting a frequency division ratio of the first frequency divider to a first frequency division ratio based on the first clock signal; and perform a second calibration operation for adjusting the first frequency division ratio to a second frequency division ratio based on a sensed temperature.

A switch circuit of an embodiment includes a high frequency switch, a first charge pump circuit, a boost signal generation circuit, and a second charge pump circuit. The high frequency switch switches transmission and reception of a high frequency signal. The first charge pump circuit generates a first voltage and a second voltage biased to the high frequency switch. When an edge of an input signal is detected, the boost signal generation circuit generates a first boost signal for temporarily increasing drive capacity of the first charge pump circuit. When the first boost signal is input, the second charge pump circuit operates to temporarily increase the drive capacity of the first charge pump circuit.
