Objects of the invention are to provide a clock generation circuit, in which, even when different clock signals are used among a plurality of circuits such as a transmitting circuit and a receiving circuit, stabilized communication is possible; and to provide a semiconductor device including the clock generation circuit. The clock generation circuit includes an edge detection circuit, a reference clock generation circuit, a reference clock counter circuit, and a frequency-divider circuit. The reference clock counter circuit is a circuit which outputs a counter value, which is obtained by counting the number of waves of a reference clock signal outputted from the reference clock generation circuit, in a period of time from when the edge detection circuit detects an edge of a signal which is externally inputted to the edge detection circuit to when the edge detection circuit detects the next edge, to the frequency-divider circuit. The frequency-divider circuit is a circuit which frequency-divides the reference clock signal based on the counter value.

A fluid filled type cylindrical vibration damping device, wherein a circumferential end of a stopper member is formed as a mating element smaller in diameter than a circumferentially center section of the stopper member, and is juxtaposed against and supported on a bottom face of a mating groove in a communication passage, to form the communication passage along an entire area between diametrically opposed faces of the mating element and an outer tubular member. A cutout portion is formed extending in a circumferential direction from a circumferential end in a widthwise medial section of the mating element, with the communication passage opening into and communicating with a first fluid chamber at a distal end section of the cutout portion, and at two widthwise side sections of the mating element, respectively, thereby defining an orifice passage connecting the first fluid chamber with a second fluid chamber.

In a case where an ASK method is used for a communication method between a semiconductor device and a reader/writer, the amplitude of a radio signal is changed by data transmitted from the semiconductor device to the reader/writer when data is not transmitted from the reader/writer to the semiconductor device. Therefore, in some cases, the semiconductor device mistakes data transmitted from the semiconductor device itself for data transmitted from the reader/writer to the semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes an antenna circuit, a transmission circuit, a reception circuit, and an arithmetic processing circuit. The antenna circuit transmits and receives a radio signal. The transmission circuit outputs to the reception circuit a signal showing whether or not the antenna circuit is transmitting the radio signal.
