摘要:
A timing circuit having an analog to digital converter to sample an analog signal, a controlled oscillator for controlling sample times of the analog to digital converter, a circuit to detect pulses in the analog signal, a phase error circuit to subtract one of two samples from the other to create a phase error measurement and a frequency error circuit to add two samples together to create a frequency error measurement. The two samples are taken from either side of a pulse. The phase error measurement is used by the controlled oscillator to adjust the sample timing to take samples at desired locations on the pulse. The circuit also contains constant values used to compensate for the pulse being asymmetrical and to compensate for other pulses that occur close to the detected pulse. The circuit also inserts a known frequency in place of the analog signal to establish a frequency of the controlled oscillator.

A method and apparatus is provided for reducing interference in circuits. A management strategy is provided to reduce reference spurs and interference in circuits. The management strategy uses a combination of one or more techniques which reduce the digital current, minimize mutual inductance, utilize field cancellation, prevent leakage current, and/or manage impedance. These techniques may be used alone, or preferably, used on combination with one another.

A method for interfacing with a capacitive touch screen is disclosed. The method includes charging an internal capacitor in the touch screen, which internal capacitor is disposed proximate a fixed location on the touch screen and is capable of changing in response to a touch at that location on the touch screen. After charging, value of the charge on the internal capacitor is determined in a manner to reduce effects of interference.

An image processor system for a charge coupled device (CCD) or CMOS imaging system includes a histogram-based automatic gain control (AGC) circuit which first controls gain by adjusting said CCD system and then for yet a higher gain level makes gain adjustments in said CDSVGA circuit and a digital gain circuit to produce a combined target gain level. A processing system for an imager device includes a camera system for producing an imager signal, a correlated double sample (CDS) circuit for receiving data from an imager, a variable gain amplifier (VGA), an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) coupled to said CDS circuit, a digital gain circuit (DGC) coupled to said ADC, and an automatic gain control (AGC) circuit coupled to said DGC for controlling the CDS circuit and the DGC, as well as shutter timing for shutter gain.

A digital direct access arrangement (DAA) circuitry may be used to terminate the telephone connections at the user's end that provides a communication path for signals to and from the phone lines. Briefly described, the DAA provides a programmable circuit for the DC termination for a variety of international phone standards. The invention may also be utilized with circuitry for transmitting and receiving a signal across a capacitive isolation barrier. More particularly, a DC holding circuit is provided in which a programmable DC current limiting mode is available. In the current limiting mode, power may be dissipated in devices external to a DAA integrated circuit. Moreover, much of the power may be dissipated in external passive devices, such as resistors.

A semiconductor package includes a package substrate and an integrated circuit. The package substrate has a first surface. The integrated circuit couples electrically to the first surface of the package substrate. The integrated circuit and the package substrate together form the semiconductor package. The semiconductor package also includes a first inductance circuit and a second inductance circuit, both formed within the semiconductor package. The first and second inductance circuits couple to each other in parallel. The first and second inductance circuits have substantially symmetrical geometric characteristics.
