Abstract
Provided is a pattern-generating device including: a timing-generating unit which generates a clock signal; a data-generating unit which generates multi-bit data used for generating a multi-level signal having three or more levels; and a control unit which controls the data-generating unit to generate the data, wherein the control unit outputs, based on the clock signal, a trigger signal which triggers the data-generating unit to generate the data, and the data-generating unit outputs, in response to the trigger signal, the multi-bit data for at least one of a rising edge or a falling edge of the clock signal.
Claims20
A pattern-generating device comprising:
- a timing-generating unit which generates a clock signal;
- a data-generating unit which generates multi-bit data used for generating a multi-level signal having three or more levels;
- and
- a control unit which controls the data-generating unit to generate the data, wherein
- the control unit outputs, based on the clock signal, a trigger signal which triggers the data-generating unit to generate the data, and
- the data-generating unit outputs, in response to the trigger signal, the multi-bit data for at least one of a rising edge or a falling edge of the clock signal.
A pattern-generating method comprising:
- generating, by a computer, a clock signal;
- generating, by the computer, multi-bit data used for generating a multi-level signal having three or more levels;
- and
- controlling, by the computer, to generate the data, wherein
- the controlling to generate the data includes outputting, based on the clock signal, a trigger signal which triggers to generate the data, and
- the generating of the data includes outputting, in response to the trigger signal, the multi-bit data for at least one of a rising edge or a falling edge of the clock signal.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having recorded thereon a program which, executed by a computer, causes the computer to function as:
- a timing-generating unit which generates a clock signal;
- a data-generating unit which generates multi-bit data used for generating a multi-level signal having three or more levels;
- and
- a control unit which controls the data-generating unit to generate the data, wherein
- the control unit outputs, based on the clock signal, a trigger signal which triggers the data-generating unit to generate the data, and
- the data-generating unit outputs, in response to the trigger signal, the multi-bit data for at least one of a rising edge or a falling edge of the clock signal.
