摘要:
The system described comprises various circuit units (10, 11, 12) each having a capacitor (C0, C1, C2) and charging means (G0, G1, G2) for defining a quantity depending upon the ratio (I/C) between the charging current and the capacitance of the capacitors. In order to compensate automatically for deviations of the actual capacitances from the nominal capacitances due to fluctuations in the parameters of the integrated-circuit manufacturing process, the system has a phase-locked loop (PLL) which uses one (10) of the circuit units as an adjustable oscillator, and current transducer means (17) which regulate the charging currents of the capacitors (C1, C2) of the circuit units (11, 12) in dependence on the regulated charging current of the capacitor (C0) of the oscillator (10) or the error current of the PLL loop.

The circuit described comprises a double half-wave rectifier (DHWR) connected to the outputs of the differential amplifier (VGA) in order to produce two quantities dependent on the amplitudes of the half-waves of the output signal of the amplifier (VGA), two comparators (COMP1, COMP2) each having an input (IN+1, IN+2) connected to an output (OUT1, OUT2) of the rectifier (DHWR) and a reference input (IN-1, IN-2) in order to produce respective output signals when the amplitudes of the respective half-waves are greater than the levels applied to the reference inputs (IN-1, IN-2), and processing means (Str1, A1, R1, Str2, A2, R2, C) for generating a signal for regulating the gain of the amplifier in dependence on the durations of the output signals of the two comparators. The circuit may advantageously be used when the signal to be amplified (v+, v-) is not symmetrical.

The amplifier described has an output stage constituted by an npn transistor (Q1) and a pnp transistor (Q2) in a push-pull arrangement, and a driver stage. The latter comprises a current-mirror circuit having, in its input branch, a pnp transistor (Q3) in series with a first constant-current generator (G1) and, in its output branch, an npn transistor (Q4), and two complementary transistors (Q5 and Q6) of which the collectors are connected together to the output terminal (OUT) and the bases are connected together to the input terminal (IN) of the amplifier. The emitter of the pnp transistor (Q5) of the driver stage is connected to the positive terminal (vdd) of the supply by means of a second constant-current generator (G2) and to the base of the npn transistor (Q1) of the output stage, and the emitter of the npn transistor (Q6) of the driver stage is connected to the negative terminal (gnd) of the supply by means of the npn transistor (Q4) of the output branch of the current-mirror circuit and to the base of the pnp transistor (Q2) of the output stage. The amplifier has a very low or zero offset ( Vos = Vout-Vin ).

The invention relates to a circuit device (1) for realising a non-linear reactive elements scale network, wherein the non-linear elements of the network are pairs of inductive (L) and capacitive (C) components cascade connected between a pair of input terminals and a pair of output terminals. Advantageously in the invention, each component (L,C) of the network is formed by cascade connecting a first (2) and a second (3) transconductance (Gm1,Gm2) integrator with each other.

The controllable-frequency oscillator described is of the astable multivibrator type with two transistors (Q1, Q2) coupled to one another by means of a capacitor (C) and a positive-feedback circuit. In order to reduce the supply voltage of the oscillator to the minimum, the positive-feedback circuit is constituted by a differential amplifier (T3, T4, R3, R4 and G5).
