Abstract

A digital phase shifter is provided which uses a direct digital synthesizer. The digital phase shifter is provided with a digital phase-shifted waveform signal generator in which a plurality of digital phase-shifted waveform signals having different phase shifts are stored. The generator outputs a digital phase-shifted waveform signal corresponding to a specified phase shift from a phase shift specifying section in synchronism with an oscillation signal from a PLL circuit. The output is converted to an analog form by a D/A convertor to generate a phase-shifted waveform.
