Abstract
Disclosed is a period measuring device comprising a clamping circuit to which a synchronizing signal in an input image signal is inputted, a comparator for removing noise in the synchronizing signal outputted from the clamping circuit, period measuring circuit for measuring the period of the synchronizing signal on the basis of the synchronizing signal obtained by the comparator, judging circuit for judging whether or not the period of the synchronizing signal which has been measured by the period measuring circuit is stable, and a control circuit for controlling, when the judging circuit judges that the period of the synchronizing signal is not stable, a threshold voltage of the comparator such that the period of the synchronizing signal is stabilized.
