To provide, with a simple structure, a voltage controlled oscillator, etc., whose center oscillation frequency is stable even if there is a change in the temperature. A delay element includes: a delay generating part which adds a delay amount to an input signal to generate an output signal; and a delay control part which controls the delay. The delay control part has a delay adjusting circuit which outputs a first control signal for adjusting the delay amount, and a temperature compensating circuit which outputs a second control signal for compensating property changes caused by the temperature. The delay control part outputs a third control signal obtained by synthesizing the first control signal and the second control signal to the delay generating part to control the delay amount. The delay control part obtains the third control signal by having the delay adjusting circuit and the temperature compensating circuit connected in series.
A delay element, comprising a delay generating part which generates an output signal by adding a specific delay amount to an input signal, and a delay control part for controlling the delay amount, wherein:
