A signal processing method and apparatus reducing distortion using divided signals differing in only amplitude by weighting an input signal by first weights ki (i=1 to 4) to obtain divided signals, performing the same signal processing f(x) on the divided signals, weighting the signal processed divided signals by second weights l1 (i=1 to 4), and adding the divided signals Vout1 to Vout4 weighted by the second weights. The first weights are k1=t, k2=−t, k3=1, k4=−1, while the second weights are l1=−1, l2=1, l3=t3, l4=−t3. Here, t=b/a (where a and b are different positive integers).

A frequency converter configured to convert a first current signal having a first frequency into a second current signal having a second frequency different from the first frequency is disclosed, which comprises an adder configured to add the first current signal and a predetermined reference current signal to output a third current signal corresponding to the sum of the first current signal and the reference current signal, and a switching circuit configured to pass only that portion of the third current signal which is larger in magnitude than a threshold current to output the second current signal.
摘要:
A D/A conversion circuit which can perform D/A conversion at high speed and with high precision is disclosed. The D/A conversion circuit comprises an analog reference power supply, an output buffer, a multiplexer, a pre-buffer, and a current changeover switch. The pre-buffer operates with a power supply voltage different from that of the analog reference power supply, and outputs a voltage substantially equal to an output voltage of the analog reference power supply. For a predetermined period after logic of digital data changes, the output voltage of the pre-buffer is supplied to the output buffer, and an input parasitic capacitor of the output buffer is charged/discharged. After the predetermined period elapses, the output voltage of the analog reference power supply is supplied to the output buffer. Therefore, a charging/discharging current of the input parasitic capacitor does not flow through the analog reference power supply, and fluctuation of the output voltage of the analog reference power supply can be suppressed.

摘要:
A frequency converter includes: a signal synthesizer element for inputting first and second input signals to synthesize these signals and for outputting a synthesized signal, from which noises even times as large as the frequency of the second input signal are removed; an amplitude limitation amplifier element, composed of a differential amplifier circuit, for amplifying the synthesized signal outputted from the signal synthesizer element to output an amplified signal having a constant amplitude; and a filter for inputting the amplified signal outputted from the amplitude limitation amplifier element, to remove an unnecessary signal component to produce an output a baseband signal including only a desired signal component. In addition, a radio receiver using the frequency converter of such a construction is designed to input the output of a local oscillator to a variable attenuator or a variable gain amplifier, to input the output of the variable attenuator or the variable gain amplifier as the first input signal to the frequency converter so as to perform the gain control. Thus, not only is self-mixing, a common problem in direct conversion receivers, prevented, but also, because a smaller local oscillation driving signal is required, power consumption is significantly reduced.
