Abstract:
An integrated circuit includes a counter configured to perform a counting operation and output a count code value. The integrated circuit further includes an operation controller, a digital circuit and an alignment unit. The operation controller receives the count code value and generates a first control signal and a second control signal. The first control signal is generated, when the count code value is equal to a first value, which is counted by the counter prior to a target count value. The second control signal is generated, when the count code value is equal to the target count value. A digital circuit performs a first operation based on the first control signal, and output a digital signal. An alignment unit aligns the digital signal, and outputs the aligned digital signal as a final digital signal in response to the second control signal.
