Abstract
A comparator compares a time interval between a first synchronization signal and a second synchronization signal with a target value, and outputs an error therebetween. A frequency calculator calculates a set value of a pixel clock frequency based on the error output from the comparator, and outputs a frequency specification signal for specifying a pixel clock frequency according to the calculated set value. A frequency divider divides a high frequency clock generated by a high frequency clock generator by a frequency division ratio based on the frequency specification signal output from the frequency calculator, and generates the pixel clock.
