Abstract
A timing signal generation device includes a GPS receiver, an atomic oscillator, a phase comparator, a loop filter, and a divider, a temperature sensor, a DDS, and a DSP. The GPS receiver outputs a reference timing signal. The atomic oscillator outputs a clock signal in accordance with an input voltage value. The phase comparator, the loop filter, and the divider adjust the voltage value in accordance with a synchronization status between the reference timing signal and the clock signal. The temperature sensor outputs a signal depending on the temperature of the atomic oscillator. The DDS converts the frequency of the clock signal and outputs a signal obtained by converting the frequency. The DSP controls the DDS based on an output of the temperature sensor.
