Providing a wireless communication device that, even if clock stop of a
radio frequency part is controlled by a baseband part operating on the
same clock signal, can resume clock oscillation, and makes it easy to
time the clock reactivation to other operations based on a shared clock.
The wireless communication device comprises an RF part generating a first
clock signal and a baseband part. The baseband part generates a second
clock signal, controls the generation and stop of the first clock signal,
uses the first clock signal to perform data processing and a clocking
operation, and in a low power consumption state in which the first clock
signal is stopped, uses the second clock signal to perform a timer
operation and a clocking operation. The generation timing of the first
clock signal can be generated by the timer operation using the second
clock signal.
