摘要:
A successive approximation A/D converter includes first and second S/H and comparators sampling and holding first and second external analog input voltages simultaneously and comparing the held, first and second external analog input voltages with a reference voltage to output first and second signals having levels corresponding to resultant comparisons, and a reference voltage generator operative in response to the first and second signals to generate the reference voltage. The two S/H and comparators share the single reference voltage generator. A reduced chip area can be achieved.

A current driven D/A converter sets an OFF control voltage (BIAS3) for turning off NMOS transistors M12P, M12N, M22P, M22N, M32P and M32N at a voltage close to an ON control voltage (BIAS2). This makes it possible to reduce the swing of the control voltage (ON control voltage—OFF control voltage) of the NMOS transistors, and hence to reduce the noise due to charge injections through parasitic capacitances, and noise of a ground voltage or power supply voltage due to flowing of discharge currents from the parasitic capacitances to the ground or power supply at turn off of the transistors, thereby being able to offer a high performance current driven D/A converter.

A current generator (CG) is composed of a constant-current-source transistor M1, and transistors (M2, M3). On receipt of control signals (VG2, VG3) respectively from a driver circuit (not shown), the transistors (M2, M3) complementarily operate to function as current switches. Then, damping resistance (R3) is provided between the drain electrode of the transistor (M3) and an output terminal ({overscore (IT)}). The output terminal ({overscore (IT)}) is connected to a ground (GND), while an output terminal (IT) is grounded via an external terminal (R2). Such a structure allows a semiconductor integrated circuit device to reduce its output ringing and further to suppress imperfections resulting from the adoption of the structure to reduce the ringing.

摘要:
Low-order reference potentials including high-order reference potentials (VRT, VRB, VC0 to VC6) generated from a ladder resistor and potentials (V(i, j) (i=0 to 7, j=0 to 6)) are applied to potential lines, respectively, to be transmitted by various switches to analog bus lines (FR0a to FR14a) or analog bus lines (FR0b FR14b). The low-order reference potentials are applied to the analog bus lines (FR0b to FR14b) when it is judged that a sample signal potential falls in voltage zones (Z0 to Z3) as a result of comparison with the high-order reference potentials and are applied to the analog bus lines (FR0a to FR14a) when it is judged that the sample signal potential falls in voltage zones (Z4 to Z7). This provides for reduction in the number of switches connected to each analog bus line and in parasitic capacitance, so that a settling time of the low-order reference potentials is shortened. High-speed operation of a series-parallel A-D converter is achieved.

A reference voltage generating circuit is disclosed which generates a plurality of linear analog voltages and is desirably applied to A/D and D/A converters. As the reference voltage generating circuit itself or a resistor network comprised therein, a resistor network is employed which comprises a plurality of resistor elements connected in series between two power sources and resistor networks (or resistor elements) connected to all the other nodes than the two nodes closest to the two power sources, respectively, out of the nodes between the former resistor elements. The above-mentioned plurality of resistor elements have the same resistance value r and the output impedance (or resistance value) of the resistor networks (or resistor elements) connected to all the nodes above is set to a value twice the resistance value r of the above-mentioned resistor elements, or 2r. Accordingly, output impedance at any of the nodes between said plurality of resistor elements represents 2.multidot.r/3. A a result, inequality of output impedances between the output terminals of the reference voltage generating circuit can be improved.

摘要:
A flow measuring device has a sensor element for outputting a nonlinear signal according to a flow rate. In the device, a first signal processing system obtains a first signal by filtering the nonlinear signal output from the sensor element, thereafter corrects a sensitivity of the filtered signal. A second signal processing system obtains a second signal by linearizing the nonlinear signal from the sensor element, thereafter filters the linearized signal and corrects a sensitivity of the filtered signal, and then non-linearizes the linearized signal with a corrected sensitivity. An amplifier amplifies a differential signal between the first and second signals. A correcting section corrects the nonlinear signal by using the amplified differential signal.
