An optical disk apparatus includes a recording method in which at least one of the scanning position, the irradiation time, the irradiation start point and the irradiation power of a light beam is arbitrarily changed, and a method and apparatus in which information is represented by a plurality of recording marks without being limited to two kinds of recording and erasion. In order to prevent overlapping recording/erasion, a recording clock generating unit delays a reference clock signal to generate a recording clock signal and a recording control unit transfers user data to an optical head in synchronism with the recording clock signal so that it is recorded on an optical disk. Also, the amount of delay is recorded to enable sure reading or reproduction. At the time of reading, a servo mark detection signal is divided to generate a clock signal having a variable frequency, thereby realizing an optical disk for which high-precision recording/reproduction is possible.

The information processor uses a portable memory formed on a transparent substrate which is able to be overwritten by laser power modulation system. The memory includes a disk type recording medium rotatably incorporated within a thin case, and carries out write/read/erase by means of a first magnetic field application device, a second magnetic field application device, and an optical head radiating light through the case which has at least a transparent light-incident portion. The case includes therein a rotation means for rotating the recording medium within the case, thereby enabling even further reduction in size of the information processor.

High density optical information recording even at room temperature is achieved by control of the diameter of crystalline portions exhibiting quantum size effects of fine semiconductor particles distributed in a dielectric matrix, using the non-crystalline to crystalline phase transition of the fine particles. The quantum size effects mean that the optical properties of the medium depend on the diameter of the crystalline portions. Various methods of recording, reproducing and erasing information using this optical recording medium are possible. The invention is applicable to other optical devices.

Because there are different voltages at two current output terminals of a current divider, the voltages at the current input terminals of two current switch circuits are not affected mutually even with a large amplitude of local signals. Accordingly, the performance of a quadrature mixer can be enhanced by increasing the amplitude of the local signals. Bias currents are supplied to the two current switch circuits through the current divider from a common DC current source which essentially supplies a bias current to a V/I converter and, therefore, power consumption is reduced.

To reduce circuit area and power consumption and suppress transient response occurring at switching in PGA of a programmable gain amplifier is provided a wireless communication receiver comprising PGAs for adjusting the gain of a received signal down-converted by mixers and sending it to base-band block. Within PGAs are provided HPFATT circuits formed of capacitors arranged in series, and ladder resistors arranged in parallel, with signal lines, and a plurality of switches. HPFATT is a circuit serving as a high-pass filter and an attenuator for gain switching, wherein switches are controlled by control signal sg from a controller. Amplifiers connected to the rear stage of the HPFATT circuit are formed of MOS transistors.
