Abstract

A timing generator circuit according to the present invention receives rate signal pulses and delay assignment data composed of rate number data and clock number data, and outputs timing signals delayed from the input timing of the rate signal pulses by intervals corresponding to the delay assignment data. The timing generator circuit comprises a counter for counting clock signals, which is reset by means of the rate signal pulses; a shift register for sequentially shifting the delay assignment data or data corresponding to the delay assignment data by means of the rate signal pulses; a coincidence detector for detecting data corresponding to predetermined rate number data from among output data from a stage of the shift register, and outputting pulses when clock number data contained in the output data coincide with count values of the counter; and a multiplexer for multiplexing the pulses outputted from the coincidence detector section and outputting the result as a timing signal.
