A magnetic detecting circuit has a magneto resistance element which converts a change of magnetism detected into a signal. A plurality of these magneto resistive elements are provided on a plane, and are oriented on the plane in two opposite directions having angles, relative to a bias direction, having substantially equal absolute values. The placement in opposite directions allows the resistance values from the elements to change in approximately the same direction as the object moves, to allow a monotonic change in the bias magnetic field. The change of the bias magnetic field can be detected from the change of resistance values of the magneto resistive elements.

In a radio-controlled device for measuring time, a demodulating unit demodulates the time information from the received electric signal based on amplitude information of the target radio wave. The amplitude information is obtained from in-phase and quadrature-phase components of the target radio wave. A phase calculator calculates phase data associated with a phase of the target radio wave based on the in-phase and quadrature-phase components. A variability calculator calculates a variability of the phase data of the target radio wave relative to a reference phase. The reference phase changes at a constant rate in time according to a frequency error. The frequency error is contained in the reference signal relative to a frequency of the target carrier wave. A reception determining unit determines whether reception of the radio-controlled device is good based on the calculated variability.

In a synchronous detection method, an input signal is averaged over at least first and second phase ranges of a target carrier wave within each period thereof to obtain at least first and second moving average values of the input signal within the at least first and second phase ranges, respectively. The first phase range corresponds to a positively oscillating phase range of the target carrier wave, and the second phase range corresponds to a negatively oscillating phase range thereof. A difference between the first and second moving averages is calculated as a detection result of the target carrier wave.

The digitization apparatus includes, as a main scale, a pulse delay circuit constituted by a plurality of delay units connected in series or in ring form, a latch/encoder, a circulation number counter, and a latch circuit, and includes, as a vernier, a reverse timing extraction circuit detecting a reverse timing at which any one of the delay units has reversed, and an interpolation circuit. The main scale digitizes a time interval between two successive measurement signals in a resolution equal to a delay time per one delay unit. The vernier digitizes a time difference between a measurement timing indicated by the measurement signal and the reverse timing in a resolution equal to 1/M (M being an integer not smaller than 2). The interpolation circuit includes two delay lines each constituted by a plurality of delay units connected in series or in ring form.
摘要:
An A/D converter has inverting elements and delay elements alternately disposed in series. Each inverting element receives an analog voltage signal as a power source and converts a pulse signal in an inversion operation time depending on the analog voltage signal. Each delay element delays transmission of the pulse signal. The transmission of the pulse signal is started from a starting inverting element at a start time, and a transit position of the pulse signal is detected at a detection time later than the start time by a predetermined time. A digital value indicating a level of the analog voltage signal is determined from the detected transit position of the pulse signal. Because transmission of the pulse signal is delayed by the delay elements, the transit position depending on the analog voltage signal can be correctly detected.

In a time measuring circuit, a pulse delay circuit is provided with a plurality of delay units. The pulse delay circuit is configured to transfer a pulse signal through the plurality of delay units while the pulse signal is delayed by the plurality of delay units. A delay time of each of the plurality of delay units depends on a level of a first drive voltage being input to each of the plurality of delay units. A generating circuit is configured to obtain a number of the delay units through which the pulse signal has passed within a predetermined period to generate, as time measurement data, digital data based on the obtained number. A first setting unit is configured to variably set the level of the first drive voltage being input to each of the plurality of delay units.
