Abstract:
1. A timing generator system for an imaging system with a plurality of components and the timing generator system, comprising: a programmable program memory that is arranged to comprise program instructions for controlling the generation of timing signals; a timing generator controller for processing the program instructions from the program memory and generating at least one control signal and an output timing signal specification there from; an output timing signal controller, coupled to the timing generator controller and responsive to the at least one control signal and the output timing signal specification to output timing signals corresponding thereto to corresponding specified ones of the plurality of components; a pixel clock generator with a pixel clock frequency corresponding with a pixel processing frequency of the image processing system; and wherein the timing generator controller includes a decoder for decoding program instructions from the memory. and wherein the timing generator controller couples with the pixel clock generator to synchronize program instruction execution therewith.
