Abstract: In a pulse edge detection circuit, a measurement circuit has a comparator provided therein which compares a voltage with a reference voltage and outputs a pulse signal. An RSFF puts a signal in a high level at a timing at which detecting a rise edge due to a change of the pulse signal to the high level. In such manner, a set signal of an RSFF becomes inactive and a reset signal of the RSFF becomes active, and a fall edge of the pulse signal becomes detectable. When a fall edge is generated due to a change of the pulse signal from the high level to the low level, the set signal of the RSFF becomes active, and a signal becomes high level.

Abstract: In a communication system, a control unit and driver units are connected in a daisy chain; each unit includes a corresponding insulated communication circuit, respectively. The control unit measures a communication delay time between the control unit and each driver unit from a response time to transmission of a pulse signal performed to each driver unit during a measurement period. Then, based on each communication delay time, the control unit transmits a shift time to each driver unit for equalizing the timing of signals output by the driver units. When each driver unit receives, from the control unit, an instruction instructing each driver unit to output a signal, each driver unit outputs the signal when the shift time has elapsed.

Abstract: An input signal is quantized by a quantizer after being passed through plural loop filters. A last-stage loop filter is formed of an operational amplifier for generating an output signal, a sampling capacitor for sampling the input signal, an integrating capacitor for integrating the signal sampled by the capacitor and plural switches for switching over signal paths. A control circuit controls on/off states of the switches to discharge the sampling capacitor and the integrating capacitor and causes the loop filter to repeat a sampling operation and an integrating operation plural times. The control circuit lastly connects the sampling capacitor and the integrating capacitor to a state, which is opposite to the state of the integrating operation time and turns on a converting switch so that the A/D converter A/D-converts the output signal of the loop filter.

Abstract: In a drive circuit, a differential circuit unit is configured such that resetting of an output voltage of the differential circuit unit is carried out, and the resetting of the output voltage of the differential circuit unit is cancelled. A value of the difference between first and second divided terminal voltages at a timing of cancelling the resetting is defined as a reference voltage. The differential circuit unit generates, as the output voltage, a product of a voltage change from a reference voltage and a predetermined amplification factor after cancelling of the resetting of the differential circuit unit. A signal generator generates a gate signal for the upper- and lower-arm switches in accordance with a value of the output voltage of the differential circuit unit while the upper- and lower-arm switches are in an off state.

Abstract: A gyroscope includes a MEMS sensor having a drive signal input terminal, a drive signal output terminal, and a sense signal output terminal. The gyroscope further includes a quadrature demodulator that demodulates a modulated sense signal and offset canceller circuits that cancel a direct current offset component included in an in-phase signal and a quadrature signal of the sense signal. The gyroscope has a quadrature error detector that detects a quadrature error based on the signals input from the offset canceller circuits and outputs an error signal. The gyroscope also has an IQ corrector circuit that receives the in-phase signal and the quadrature signal of the sense signal as inputs, and outputs a phase signal with a phase based on the error signal.

Abstract: A ΔΣ modulator includes an input circuit having a sampling capacitor, an integration circuit, a quantizer and a D/A converter having a DAC capacitor. The input circuit takes in an analog input voltage in the sampling capacitor in a sampling period, and transfers a charge to the integration circuit in a holding period. The D/A converter takes in an analog potential, to which selection switches are connected in the sampling period based on a digital output of the quantizer, in the DAC capacitor, and subtracts a charge from the integration circuit in the holding period. At this time, since the input circuit and the D/A converter are set so that the holding periods do not overlap with each other, an error caused by the lowering of a feedback factor is suppressed.
