Abstract

Disclosed is a triangular wave generator which includes a square wave signal generating unit configured to output a first signal transitioning to a high level from a low level via an output terminal in response to a first transition of a clock signal and to transition the first signal to a low level from a high level in response to a reset signal; a resistance unit configured to adjust a voltage level of a the square wave signal; and a capacitance unit configured to receive an output signal of the resistance unit to generate a second signal rising to a high level from a low level with a slope, to provide the reset signal to the square wave signal generating unit, and to output a triangular signal by falling the second signal to a low level from a high level with a slope.
