A signal Fbk _ t to be expanded generates a signal QDf with a delay of 2 × Δ t through a group of delay subarrays with two delay units in a delay array module, a signal Q2 to be expanded after pulse width transmission output by a 2 nd-stage D flip-flop D _2 generates a signal QD2 with a delay Δ t through a group of delay subarrays with one delay unit in a delay array module, a signal Q1 to be expanded after pulse width transmission output by a 1 st-stage D flip-flop D _1, a signal QDf with a delay of 2 × Δ t and a signal QD2 with a delay Δ t are respectively input into corresponding signal input ends of a three-input-end or logic unit, the three-input-end or logic unit performs or logic operation processing on input signals Q1, QDf and 2, and error signals are prevented from being generated by partial overlapping of signals of three signals Q1, QDf and QD 2; when the first rising edge of the reference clock signal Clk comes, the signal Fbk _ t to be expanded changes from low level to high level, due to the delay action of the delay array module, the signal Fbk _ or output by the or logic unit signal output end of the three input ends changes into high level at the time when the first rising edge of the reference clock signal is delayed by 2 × Δ t, the waveform of the signal Fbk _ or output by the or logic unit signal output end of the three input ends can be shown in fig. 5, the D flip-flop D _0 of the output shaping unit receives the signal Fbk _ or to be expanded, which is output by the or logic unit of the three input ends and is subjected to the or logic operation processing, and shapes and outputs the signal Fbk _ or, when the first rising edge of the reference clock signal Clk comes, the signal Fbk _ or output by the or logic unit signal output end of the three input ends is low level, and after the delay of 2 × Δ t, the signal Fbk _ or output by the or logic unit signal output end of the three input ends changes from low level to high level, when the second rising edge of the reference clock signal Clk comes, the output signal Fbk _ or of the or logic cell signal output terminal of the three input terminals is kept at the high level, the shaped output signal Fbk _3t is changed from the low level to the high level, when the third rising edge of the reference clock signal Clk comes, the output signal Fbk _ or of the or logic cell signal output terminal of the three input terminals is kept at the high level, the shaped output signal Fbk _3t is kept at the high level, when the fourth rising edge of the reference clock signal Clk comes, the output signal Fbk _ or of the or logic cell signal output terminal of the three input terminals is changed from the high level to the low level but still at the high level, the shaped output signal Fbk _3t is kept at the high level, when the fifth rising edge of the reference clock signal Clk comes, the output signal Fbk _ or of the three input terminals is kept at the low level, the shaped output signal Fbk _3t is changed from the high level to the low level, specific waveform variations can be seen in fig. 5.
