1. A device for providing a desired delayed signal, comprising:
- (a) means for delaying an input signal to produce a plurality of delayed signals, each delayed signal having a different delay time with respect to said input signal;
(b) a plurality of phase detecting means for detecting a plurality of specific delayed signals having specific relations with said input signal from said plurality of delayed signals;
(c) masking means for making only one of said plurality of phase detecting means operative; and
(d) means for determining a desired delayed signal from said plurality of delayed signals according to the detected result by said plurality of detecting means to output said desired delayed signal.
