Abstract

Timing generators and methods of generating timing signals are disclosed. In one implementation, a timing generator for an imaging device includes a timing generator memory configured to store timing information, a timing core coupled to the timing generator memory and configured to read the timing information from the timing generator memory, and a processor core coupled to the timing core and configured to control a plurality of counters. The timing core can be further configured to generate a plurality of timing patterns based on the timing information and the plurality of counters. The timing generator can also be configured to generate a plurality of toggle positions for a plurality of timing signals based on the plurality of timing patterns.
