A timing signal output device includes a receiver configured to output a reference signal on the basis of satellite signals received from a plurality of positioning satellites, an oscillator configured to output a clock signal, and a processor configured to switch, on the basis of statistical value information concerning a statistical value obtained by performing statistical processing of elevation angles of the plurality of positioning satellites, a first mode for generating a timing signal based on the reference signal and a second mode for generating a timing signal based on the clock signal.

Timing signal output device, and electronic apparatus

A timing signal output device includes a timing signal generation circuit which generates a timing signal synchronized with a reference signal based on a satellite signal received from at least one positioning satellite, the timing signal being synchronized with the reference signal at a timing based on an elevation angle of a positioning satellite.
