ABSTRACT:
An oscillation apparatus is provided with a present value generating unit for generating a present value which is monotonously increased or decreased with the passage of time; a threshold value generating unit for generating a threshold of which a value is periodically varied; a comparing and detecting unit for comparing the present value generated in said present value generating unit with the threshold generated in said threshold value generating unit; a present value reset unit for resetting the present value to a predetermined initial value whenever said comparing and detecting unit detects a fact that the present value reached the threshold; and a signal generating unit for generating sequentially signals of which a period is defined by a time interval of timing-to-timing in which said comparing and detecting detects a fact that the present value reached the threshold.
