Abstract
A method and apparatus for multi-range delay control is disclosed. A method furnishes an output signal (S.sub.K) with a delay that is variable with respect to an input signal (e.sub.0). To enable precise adjustment as a function of a set-point delay (CN) over a plurality of scales, a succession of signals (e.sub.1, e.sub.2, . . . , e.sub.n) delayed with respect to the input signal (e.sub.0) are produced, the delay between a delayed signal (e.sub.2) and the preceding signal (e.sub.1) having a predetermined value. One of the delayed signals (e.sub.2) and a preceding signal (e.sub.1) as selected and a superposition is performed with weighting and an integral effect of the selected signals (e.sub.1, e.sub.2), the selection and weighting being determined as a function of the set-point delay (CN).
