    Abstract: The present invention relates to an analog-to-digital converting circuit, which comprises an integrating circuit, a reference signal generating circuit, a comparator, and a first counting circuit. The integrating circuit integrates an input signal for producing an integration signal. The reference signal generating circuit produces a plurality of reference signals. The comparator receives the integration signal and the plurality of reference signals, and compares the integration signal to the plurality of reference signals sequentially for producing a plurality of comparison signals. The first counting circuit receives the plurality of comparison signals produced by the comparator, and starts to count the plurality of comparison signals for producing a reset signal and resetting the integrating circuit. Because the integrating circuit is not reset once until the comparator produces the plurality of comparison signals, the number of times of resetting the integrating circuit can be reduced, and hence reducing the integral nonlinearity effect. Accordingly, the accuracy of the analog-to-digital converting circuit is enhanced.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a capacitance sensing circuit with anti-EMI capability. A filter is coupled to a capacitor under test; receives a plurality of reference signals; and produces a first filter signal and a second filter signal. A difference circuit receives the first and second filter signals; eliminates the common-mode noise in the first and second filter signals; and produces a difference signal. The amplitude of the difference signal is related to the capacitance value of the capacitor under test. Thereby, the purpose of sensing capacitance can be achieved. In addition, by eliminating common-mode noise using the difference circuit, the anti-EMI capability can be achieved. Because the difference circuit can adjust the dynamic range of the output of the filter, the capacitance sensing circuit with anti-EMI capability can achieve capacitance sensing in few clock cycles.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a charge pump capable of enhancing power efficiency and output voltage, which comprises a pump capacitor, a switching module, a first switch, a first buffer, a first switch, and an output capacitor. The switching module is coupled to a first terminal of the pump capacitor. The first switch is coupled between a second terminal of the pump capacitor and a supply voltage. The first buffer receives a first input signal and produces a control signal for controlling the first switch to turn on or cut off. The level of the first input signal ranges between a first voltage and a second voltage, wherein the first and the second voltages are related to the gate voltage of the first switch. The gate voltage of the first switch is a multiple, which is greater than one, of the supply voltage. Thereby, the impedance of the switch is reduced, and hence the power efficiency of the charge pump, the output voltage level, and the area efficiency of integrated circuits are improved.

    Abstract: A driving method to improve response time of twisted nematic (TN) and super twisted nematic (STN) passive matrix LCDs without increasing graphic memory (GRAM) adopts an over-driving operation principle to convert data of three primary colors to YCbCr data and over-driving YCbCr data. Then compressing, sampling and combining are performed through a video compression standard to further reduce a portion of storage bits of the YCbCr data and over-driving YCbCr data. Through an output frequency doubling circuit an over-driving compensation potential higher or lower than the original output potential is flexibly given N times according to the over-driving Y′Cb′Cr′ data within the update time period of each data bus. Thereby the response time of the LCDs improves without increasing the GRAM and dynamic picture blurring phenomenon also improves.
