Abstract
A voltage comparator with several parallel output channels connected to respective threshold circuits is responsive to the increase of the charge voltage of a capacitor with a linear variation of output currents in the channels. The different output currents, equal or different to each other but all with the same variation rates, are converted into control voltages of the threshold circuits, which are of different value but change with identical rates, so as to reach the threshold value of the respective threshold circuits at different times. From the outputs of the threshold circuits there exit the desired timely connected synchronously related signals, which may be either simple leading or trailing fronts or pulses.
