摘要:
An analog signal processing device includes an arithmetic unit arithmetically processing plural comparison reference voltages and an analog input signal, a comparator which has at least one or more judgment points for the comparison reference voltages and to which an output of the arithmetic unit is inputted, and a coupling controller controlling connections between the arithmetic unit and the comparator. The arithmetic unit includes plural correctable first signal processors, and the number of the first signal processors is more than is necessary for the plural comparison reference voltages. When one or more first signal processors are in a correction operation, first signal processors which are not in the correction operation in the arithmetic unit are connected to the comparator. Thus, errors caused by interpolation are corrected in the background while suppressing the number of elements by the interpolation, it becomes possible to use small size elements by correcting the influence of element dispersion, and a device with high accuracy and high speed can be realized.

In an analog-to-digital conversion method for converting a difference signal component representing a difference between a reference component and a signal component in an analog signal to be processed into digital data, in a first process, a signal corresponding to one of the reference component and the signal component is compared with a reference signal for conversion into the digital data. Concurrently with the comparison, counting is performed in one of a down-count mode and an up-count mode, and a count value at a time of completion of the comparison is held. In a second process, a signal corresponding to the other one of the reference component and the signal component is compared with the reference signal. Concurrently with the comparison, counting is performed in the other one of the down-count mode and the up-count mode, and a count value at a time of completion of the comparison is held.

There is provided a method for accurately compensating a DC offset component contained in a signal to be modulated, i.e. a transmission signal generated in a quadrature modulation system. A DC offset correction value determined from the transmission signal is subjected to weighting in accordance with the signal level of an input signal to the quadrature modulation system as transmission data, and then the DC offset component contained in the transmission signal is compensated based on the weighted DC offset correction value.

A D/A converter (100) includes a delta-sigma modulation circuit (102) including a quantizer (105) that receives a digital signal to quantize it based on a quantization reference value, a local D/A conversion circuit (107) for converting an output from the delta-sigma modulating circuit to an analog signal to be outputted, and a control circuit (109) for correcting the quantization reference value of the quantizer. The quantization reference value is established for each of a plurality of discrete output values that the quantizer may output. The control circuit (109) corrects the quantization reference value to cancel any distortion that would occur in a circuit following the delta-sigma modulation circuit (102) and including the local D/A conversion circuit (107).
摘要:
The present invention is related to an analogue-to-digital (A/D) converter comprising at least two voltage comparator devices . Each of the voltage comparator devices is arranged for being fed with a same input signal and for generating an own internal voltage reference . The two internal voltage references are different. Each voltage comparator is arranged for generating an output signal indicative of a bit position of a digital approximation of said input signal.
