Abstract

A signal processing apparatus includes a processor, a memory storing a program, and an integration circuit that performs filter processing on an input signal to output a processed signal. The processor samples an output signal output from the integration circuit in a sampling period Ts and stores a sampled value of the output signal in accordance with the program, and detects a duty of the input signal based on a difference between a value of the output signal at a time t0 representing a present time point and a sampled value of the output signal obtained at a time t0−n representing an earlier time than the time t0 by an n sampling period when n is a positive integer, the value of the output signal, a value of the integer n, the sampling period Ts, and a time constant of a filter of the integration circuit.
