Abstract
A clock generator is provided which controls a leading edge and a trailing edge of a clock to come to an arbitrary position for every clock pulse. A base clock pulse is generated, and then at least first and second clock pulses are generated by delaying the base clock pulse, wherein phases of each of the base clock pulse, the first clock pulse, and the second clock pulse are different from each other. The first clock pulse and the second clock pulse are selected in order so as to synthesize an output clock pulse from the first clock pulse and the second clock pulse within one cycle period of the output clock pulse, so that a leading edge portion of the output clock pulse comprises the first clock pulse and a trailing edge portion of the output clock pulse comprises the second clock pulse within the one cycle period of the output clock pulse.
