ABSTRACT:
A timing generator, which is simple in construction and is capable of high speed operation with excellent linearity and low power consumption, wherein a delayed timing signal is generated by delaying an input timing signal. The generator comprises a switch having one end thereof connected to a first voltage source and which is controlled by the input timing signal, a current source provided between the other end of the switch and a second voltage source; a charge injection circuit generating a voltage signal which is turned ON and OFF in accordance with the input timing signal; a capacitor provided between the output end of the charge injection circuit and the other end of the switch; and a comparator generating a delayed timing signal by comparing the voltage at the other end of the switch with a desired voltage, wherein the delay time of the delayed timing signal is adjusted by controlling either the voltage outputted from the charge injection circuit or the current from the current source.
