ABSTRACT:
Pulse signal generating device includes a duty cycle calculator for calculating a target duty cycle at predetermined intervals, a duty cycle comparator for making a comparison between the target duty cycle calculated by the duty cycle calculator and a current duty cycle of a pulse signal being currently output from the device, and a pulse signal adjuster. The duty cycle comparator determines whether the target duty cycle has presented a variation (increase or decrease) from the current duty cycle by over a predetermined value. Once the duty cycle comparator detects that a difference between the target duty cycle and the current duty cycle is more than the predetermined value, the pulse signal adjuster adjusts the pulse signal, using a pulse rise point immediately before the detection as an adjustment reference point, in such a manner that the pulse signal assumes a duty cycle corresponding to the target duty cycle.
