Abstract
An exemplary timing generator includes a coarse delay circuit configured to generate a coarse delayed rising edge signal and a coarse delayed falling edge signal from a reference timing signal; a fine delay circuit configured to generate a fine delayed rising edge signal from the coarse delayed rising edge signal and a fine delayed falling edge signal from the coarse delayed falling edge signal; an edge combiner configured to generate the timing signal based on the fine delayed rising edge signal and the fine delayed falling edge signal; and a masking circuit configured to generate a rising edge masking signal and a falling edge masking signal for controlling when the rising edges and the falling edges of the timing signal are generated.
