Abstract
A timer circuit includes a storage unit to store a series of first data content relating to a time into a specified address area, a target value generation unit to read the first data content from a read address of the storage unit and to generate, as a target value, third data content in which second data content is added to the first data content, a counter to perform counting and to output a count-up signal when the counting is performed up to the target value, and a control unit to sequentially designate a next read address of the storage unit at each count-up and to cause the series of operations of the target value generation unit and the counter to be executed.
