Abstract
A common reference signal is applied from the same reference signal generating portion to a reference signal input terminal of a signal under test generator and a reference signal input terminal of a sampling signal generator circuit. A sampling frequency is set to the sampling signal generator circuit such that a desired delay time can be obtained relevant to a phase of a signal under test. In the sampling signal generator circuit, the sampling signal having a cycle that corresponds to the sampling frequency is generated based on the common reference signal and the sampling frequency. A repetition cycle of the signal under test and a repetition cycle of the sampling signal are set based on a cycle of the common reference signal so that the repetition cycle of the sampling signal can be set independently of the repetition cycle of the signal under test.
