A chemical vapor deposition apparatus deposits a thin film on a substrate according to a chemical vapor deposition method by using plasma energy and reaction gas. The chemical vapor deposition apparatus comprises at least a reaction tube, a waveguide and a substrate holder. The reaction tube is inserted through the waveguide to thereby form a reaction vessel. The reaction tube is connected with a reaction gas source, and reaction gas is introduced into the reaction tube. The substrate holder is placed at an area in which the reaction tube and the waveguide intersect. The substrate holder provides a rotation axis for rotating the substrate, and the waveguide is provided such that a center axis thereof is inclined in relation to a center axis of the substrate holder. In addition, the substrate holder can be freely rotated around the center axis thereof. By rotating the substrate so that a plasma is generated at the position opposite to and inclined against the substrate, all portions of the substrate are heated uniformly. Thus, a thin film having uniform thickness can be deposited over the entire surface of the substrate.

A receiving circuit stops a one shot timer from generating an output signal immediately after the output signal is outputted to an external entity until a predetermined stretch time elapses. With this arrangement, the receiving circuit will not generate a new output signal even if (i) noises generated by a voltage fluctuation of the output signal appear on an amplified signal immediately after the output signal is outputted (at the end of the output), and (ii) the value of the amplified signal exceeds a threshold value. Therefore, the receiving circuit can make sure that an unnecessary output signal will not be generated due to the noises.

An amplifier circuit amplifies the difference between an output voltage from a current voltage conversion circuit and a bias voltage. The current voltage conversion circuit converts a photocurrent of a photodiode which detect incoming light into a voltage. A gm-amp charges or discharges a capacity by a current corresponding to the difference between the output voltage from the amplifier circuit and a reference voltage. A field effect transistor supplies a drain current, which is controlled by voltages at the respective terminals of the capacity, to the photodiode, in order to prevent the output voltage of the amplifier circuit from being varied due to the influence of a DC photocurrent flowing in the photodiode. The gate of a field effect transistor, which is connected in parallel to a current voltage conversion resistor, has an identical voltage with the gate of the field effect transistor.

An infrared transmitter circuit causes an output current to flow to a light emission diode via a current mirror circuit constituted of three transistors by using a current supplied from a power source circuit, so that the light emission diode emits light. When a voltage V1 varied by charging a capacitor with a current flowing from the power source circuit exceeds a reference voltage (voltage V2), an output of a comparator resets a D flip-flop, so that an output of the D flip-flop varies to “0”. Thus, an output of a NAND gate to which that output and a transmission signal are inputted causes a transistor (N-channel FET) to turn ON so as to stop operation of the current mirror circuit, and causes a transistor (P-channel FET) to turn OFF so as to cut a connection between the power source circuit and a power source line. Thus, it is possible to reduce power consumption in operation of a protection circuit which stops supplying the output current to the light emission diode.
