    摘要: A device for converting binary logic pulses into an output current and the output current being switchable between a positive and negative polarity. The device provides a charge pump circuit which is suitable for the phase-detector stage in a phase-locked loop (PLL) circuit. The charge pump circuit comprises an input stage for the "UP" binary logic pulses and a second stage for the "DOWN" binary logic pulses. The input stages comprise emitted-coupled transistor pairs. The circuit includes current sources and current sinks for generating the output current in the input stages in response to the binary logic pulses. The circuit features a pair of switch diodes coupled between the outputs of the input stages. The diodes form a commutator which controls the direction of the output current and the leakage current during the idle states. The circuit also includes a clamping circuit to limit the voltage swing across the switching diodes. The charge pump circuit according to the present invention exhibits a fast response time, a symmetrical response to the binary logic pulses, and virtually zero leakage current in the idle state. The charge pump circuit utilizes non-complimentary bipolar processes and is suitable for a monolithic integrated circuit implementation.

    摘要: A circuit particularly useful in AGC systems, produces an output current which is proportional to the difference between a signal voltage and a reference voltage which is practically independent of temperature. By being a function of a ratio among actual values of integrated resistances and of a ratio among substantially temperature-stable voltages. The effects of temperature dependent value of integrated resistances and of temperature-dependent electrical characteristics of integrated semiconductor devices are compensated in order to produce the desired temperature-independent output current which may usefully be utilized for implementing an automatic gain control.

    摘要: An integrated circuit bandgap voltage reference, in which the regulated voltage is equal to the sum of a first transistor's base-emitter voltage plus a voltage which is proportional to the difference between the base-emitter voltages of two transistors operating at different current densities, PLUS an additional voltage which is equal to the base-emitter drop of an additional transistor. The additional transistor is connected to an emitter resistor which ensures that variations in resistor values will cause the base-emitter drop of the additional transistor to vary oppositely to the base-emitter drop of the first transistor. The resulting voltage reference circuit has high stability and low power consumption.

    摘要: A constant-current source including a constant-current output circuit for supplying a constant current provided with one or more transistors with the bases biased with the same base potential, a first circuit which provides a first current signal for setting the strength of the constant current to be delivered from the constant-current output circuit, a second circuit which generates a second current signal and provides the same base potential in response to the second current signal, a third circuit which controls the second current signal to minimize any deviation of the second current signal from the first current signal, and a DC power supply for energizing at least the first, second and third circuits. The improvement is that the transconductance of the first circuit which represents the ratio of a change in the first current signal to a change in the output voltage of the DC power supply is equal to the transconductance of the second circuit which represents the ratio of a change in the second current signal to a change in the output voltage of the DC power supply.

    摘要: A novel circuit is taught to provide a smooth current transfer function over a range of two input voltages, so that power can be supplied to an electronic circuit from more than a single power source. In one embodiment such power sources include a battery and an DC supply operated off the AC mains. Associated with each such supply is a current source designed to provide a reference current. This reference current is used to establish mirror currents from each of the power leads in order to provide the desired output current.

    摘要: A current-detecting circuit detects the value of a current which flows out of an output circuit incorporated in an integrated circuit. A current-detecting resistor (17) is located at an intermediate point of the path along which the current flows out of the output circuit. The emitters of two NPN transistors (15, 16), for which a collector area ratio of N:1 is determined, are connected to the ends of the resistor (17), respectively. The bases of the NPN transistors (15, 16) are connected together, and the base and collector of one (15) of the NPN transistors are connected together. A current mirror circuit (14), which is made up of two PNP transistors (12, 13) and for which an input-to-output current ratio of M:1 determined, is connected to the collectors of the NPN transistors (15, 16). The base of an output NPN transistor (18) is connected to a node to which the collector of one (13) of the PNP transistors and the collector of one (16) of the NPN transistors are connected in common.

    摘要: A constant voltage generating circuit includes a first power supply line coupled to an external power supply line, at least one second power supply line having a voltage different from that of the first power supply line, a level shift circuit having at least one transistor coupled between the first power supply line and the second power supply line, a resistor having one end connected to one of the first and second power supply lines and other end coupled to a base of a transistor provided at a final stage of the level shift circuit, and a current control circuit operatively connected between the other end of the resistor and another of the first and second power supply lines. The current control circuit suitably controls current flowing in the resistor. As a result, it is possible to continually feed a constant voltage irrespective of a fluctuation in temperature, power supply voltage, or the like.
