    摘要: An electronic circuit device has a high-density mount board, on which are disposed a microcomputer, a random access memory, a programmable device which is a variable logic circuit represented by FPGA, and an electrically-rewritable nonvolatile memory which can store the operation program of the microcomputer. The high-density mount board has external mounting pins on the bottom surface so as to be mounted on a mother board in the same manner as a system on-chip multi-chip module. With an intended logic function being set on the programmable device, a hardware-based function to be realized by the electronic circuit device is simulated. With an operation program being written to the nonvolatile memory, a software-based function to be realized is simulated. Consequently, the device facilitates the debugging at early stages of system development, configures a prototype system, and contributes to the time reduction throughout the system development, prototype fabrication and large-scale production.

    摘要: A variable gain amplifier of low amplitude distortion, and low noise, having a large variable range, is provided. A variable gain differential amplifier that controls a gain by use of bias current is used as each of unit amplifiers (VGAs) making up the variable gain amplifier. A large variable gain range is obtained by series-connecting a plurality of the variable gain differential amplifiers. An attenuator is installed on the input side of the unit amplifier (VGA) at least in the initial stage. By doing so, it becomes possible to prevent amplitude distortion from occurring to the respective VGAs. An attenuator utilizing voltage division by capacitors, generating no noise, is used for lowering noise. Further, the variable gain amplifier is provided with a fixed gain amplifier installed in the final stage as necessary in order to obtain a total gain as desired. With the use of the variable gain amplifier as a variable gain amplifier for output power control of a polar loop transmitter, an excellent function for output power control can be achieved without causing significant deterioration in distortion characteristic and noise characteristic thereof.

    摘要: A semiconductor device including a level converter (LSC) is disclosed. The level converter comprises a voltage-up circuit (LSC1) that operates on low voltage of power supply (VDD) and steps up voltage enough to drive the level converter and a level converter circuit (LSC2) that operates on high voltage of power supply (VDDQ). The voltage-up circuit is capable of constantly generating 2×VDD so that the level converter can convert a low voltage of power supply (VDD) below 1 V to VDDQ. This voltage-up circuit can be configured only with MOSFET transistors produced by thin oxide film deposition, thus enabling high-speed operation. To facilitate designing a circuit for preventing a leakage current from occurring in the level converter during sleep mode of a low-voltage-driven circuit (CB1), the level converter circuit (LSC2) includes a leak protection circuit (LPC) that exerts autonomous control for leak prevention, dispensing with external control signals.

    摘要: An IP generating system includes an IP (Intellectual Property) providing apparatus and at least one development apparatus. The IP providing apparatus searches for a development apparatus installing a memory compiler to be revised with reference to applied condition data managed by a master database, and transmits the revision information as to the memory compiler to the development apparatus. The system can revise the memory compiler without requiring a user to make a decision as to the necessity of the revision of the memory compiler.

    摘要: A method and device are provided for applying logic BIST at speed for large-scale and high-performance logic circuits without increasing test time, and decreasing test costs as a result. In one example, a logic BIST controller is divided into two portions. A clock signal having a small delay is used to drive a partial circuit that supplies a user circuit with a scan enable signal and a clock signal. A clock signal having a large delay is used to drive a partial circuit that supplies the user circuit with a test pattern and collects a test result.
