    Abstract: An oscillator circuit having a charge storage device, an upward integration current source, and a downward integration current source is described. The charge storage device is also connected to a comparator in order to drive the current sources as a function of a lower comparator threshold and an upper comparator threshold. In consequence, a triangular waveform voltage is formed across the charge storage device, on the basis of the relaxation principle. The difference voltage from the two comparator thresholds is dropped across a first resistor. Since the comparator itself as well as the lower and upper current thresholds are formed in a common current path, this oscillator circuit has a particularly low current draw.

    Abstract: An amplifier circuit with offset compensation is particularly suited for a Hall element. In addition to the useful signal demodulation that is normally present and connected downstream of an amplifier, an error signal demodulator provides an error signal demodulation. The measured signals that are tapped off at the Hall sensor are coupled out at the input or output of the amplifier, and a demodulated error signal is fed back to the input of the amplifier. This makes it possible to reduce the drive range of the amplifier. The amplifier circuit is suitable in particular for Hall sensors that are operated in chopped mode.
