1. A trigger signal detection apparatus comprising:
a clock gating circuit which is supplied with a trigger signal and a clock signal and outputs the clock signal; a trigger signal processing circuit which outputs a first signal only for a predetermined time when the clock signal is supplied from the clock gating circuit; a counter which operates in response to cancellation of the trigger signal, thus outputting a count value of the clock signal; and a time set-up circuit which outputs a second signal to the trigger signal processing circuit when count value supplied from the counter reaches a preset value, wherein the trigger signal processing circuit stops outputting the first signal when the trigger signal processing circuit receives the second signal, the counter is reset when the counter is supplied with the trigger signal and, when the trigger signal is canceled, the counter is released from the reset state and starts counting the clock signal, and the first signal keeps outputting from the trigger signal processing circuit exclusively during a time period from the supply of the clock from the outside into the trigger signal processing circuit until the input of the second signal into the trigger signal processing circuit. |
