Abstract

See full text

A signal generation device outputs a signal based on a predetermined pattern with a logic transition to a predetermined external device. The signal generation device comprises an output driver which outputs respective signals based on at least two test patterns different in the frequency of the logic transition respectively to the predetermined external device, a regulator which supplies power to the output driver, a current compensation circuit which generates a compensation current, and a control circuit which adjusts a value of the compensation current. The control circuit adjusts, for each test pattern, the value of the compensation current such that a difference value calculated based on output voltages of the regulator becomes a determination criteria value or less.
