A time-to-digital converter includes a clock signal generation circuit that generates a first cycle signal having a voltage level that monotonously increases or decreases in a cycle corresponding to the clock frequency of a reference clock signal and further generates a first clock signal based on a first signal and the first cycle signal, a clock signal generation circuit that generates a second cycle signal having a voltage level that monotonously increases or decreases in a cycle corresponding to the clock frequency of a reference clock signal and further generates a second clock signal based on a second signal and the second cycle signal, and a processing circuit that converts a time difference between the transition timing of the first signal and the transition timing of the second signal into a digital value based on the first and second clock signals.
