    摘要: While a current of a constant current source 503 is equally divided to a plurality of current paths so as to produce a unit current, switches which are series-connected to the respective current paths are controlled by a switch circuit 504 in response to a digital input signal. As a result, since both output currents 505 and 506 whose unit currents are variable can be obtained, a total number of circuit components is reduced, so that not only an occupied area may be reduced, but also resolution in the vicinity of a center may be improved.

    摘要: There is disclosed an integrated circuit that includes a digital-to-analog converter (e.g., 10) having a resistor string (e.g., 14) driven by a current source (e.g., 12). The resistor string is coupled to the current source. Intermediate taps (e.g., T₁ through T n+1 ) are defined at the resistor junctions as well the resistor-current source junctions. Switching transistors (e.g., M₁ through M n+1 ) are coupled between an output node and a respective intermediate tap. A selection circuit (e.g., 2) is coupled to a terminal of each switching transistor for selectively switching the transistors to a predetermined state to electrically couple the associated intermediate tap to the output node (e.g., 16).

    摘要: Described is a digital-to-analog converter (46) for use in a timing control loop. The converter includes a plurality of cells (B1....BN), each activated in response to a timing loop control signal. The converter also includes a resistive current mirror, with a first resistance R1, providing a reference current which is mirrored in each cell by a current source FET. Each cell is constructed to switch the current from its current source FET through an output FET when a respective control bit provided to the cell is positive. Otherwise, the current is diverted through a sink FET. All of the cell output FETs are tied to a single resistance R2 which collects the currents of the active cells and provides the AC output of the converter. The converter's output is related only to the ratio R2/R1, thereby decoupling process, temperature, and voltage effects from the output of the converter.

    摘要: An electrical circuit (30) corrects for the presence of noise current and current drift in the currents developed by each current source transistor Q₀, Q₁, Q₂, Q₃, ... Q n in a current source array. The electrical circuit corrects for the presence of noise current and current drift by simultaneously inducing in each current source correction currents whose values sum to cancel the current drift and noise. A noise suppression circuit includes an amplifier (12) having an open loop gain, A v , which is configured to adjust the magnitudes of the multiple currents in response to the introduction of a noise current, i δ , in any one of the currents. The adjustment substantially cancels i δ and thereby substantially reduces the presence of i δ in the output current. The presence of i δ in the output signal is substantially equal to i δ /(1 + A v ).
