Abstract
A system for providing a plurality of synchronous timing signals having period values that are not even multiples of the clock period including a plurality of local edge generators receiving the clock signals, each local generator including local programmable means to count clock signals and provide local outputs upon receiving predetermined clock signals and local programmable delay means for providing a timing signal after a delay interval following each local output, the resolution of the local delay means being greater than that of the clock.
