In a multiple signal switching circuit using four input signals IN1-IN4, a four-input latch circuit 3b is located. Four NAND circuits 6″ are used as the four-input latch circuit 3b, when one of the four signals IN1-IN4 is “L” and the other three are “H.” In each of the NAND circuits 6″, an output is coupled to one of the four input signals IN1-IN4, the three signals other than the coupled signal are coupled to inputs. Therefore, even in a multiple signal switching circuit having three or more input signals, timing errors among multiple signals to be output can be effectively reduced.

A semiconductor integrated circuit is provided with a reference voltage generation circuit for generating a voltage to be a reference, a function circuit that is operated using an output voltage of the reference voltage generation circuit, and a reference voltage stabilization capacitor for stabilizing the output voltage, which is connected to an output terminal of the reference voltage generation circuit. During standby, the function circuit stops operating while the reference voltage generation circuit continues operating to prevent discharging of the reference voltage stabilization capacitor, thereby realizing reduction in power consumption of the function circuit such as an analog circuit as well as high-speed recovery from the standby state to the normal operation state.

All of a transparent electrode layer 2, a light-emitting layer 3, a dielectric layer 4, a back-surface electrode 5, collecting electrodes 5a, 5b, and an insulating coat layer 6 are laminated with predetermined patterns by screen printing on an insulating transparent film 1. Conductive paste used for forming transparent electrode layer 2 comprises conductive powder of indium oxide which contains needle-like powder (A) and fine-gain powder (B) at a blending ratio of (A):(B)=100:0 to 20:80. A binder resin (D), being a photo-hardening or thermal-hardening resin, is mixed with the conductive powder (C) at a blending ratio of (C):(D)=45:55 to 95:5, thereby obtaining an excellent EL lighting element.

On an upper surface of an insulating transparent film, a transparent electrode layer, a phosphor layer, a dielectric layer, a back-surface electrode, collecting electrode layers, and an insulating coat layer are successively accumulated in predetermined patterns by repeating screen printing operations. Meanwhile, a light-permeable reflection layer containing pearly pigment is formed on a lower surface of the insulating transparent film in a predetermined pattern by a printing operation. With this arrangement, it becomes possible to eliminate the color difference of the light-emitting surface of the EL lighting element between its turned-on and turned-off conditions.

A filter circuit includes two parallel digital filters, a DAC, and an LPF. The DAC includes two parallel decoders, a parallel-to-serial converter, a switch driver, and a switch. A PLL circuit supplies a reference clock to the DAC. A frequency divider provided in the DAC divides the frequency of the reference clock by two, and supplies the half frequency clock to a parallel processing section (the two decoders and the parallel-to-serial converter) of the DAC and the two digital filters. This makes it easy to secure a timing margin, permitting use in high-speed communication on the order of several GHz.
摘要:
When a semiconductor circuit, in which a stabilizing capacitor 2 for stabilizing a reference voltage Vbias is connected to a reference voltage terminal RT, recovers from a power down state to an operational state, a current mirror circuit 40 provides current mirroring of a current Ia of a first current path Ph1, which generates an OFF threshold voltage ref1 of a hysteresis comparator 1, to generate a current Ib of a second current path Ph2, which generates the reference voltage Vbias. The reference voltage Vbias is input to the comparator 1 as an input voltage vin. When the reference voltage Vbias becomes equal to the OFF threshold voltage ref1, the comparator 1 immediately stops the charging of the stabilizing capacitor 2 by a current source I1.

[Means for Solving the Problem] In a current switch circuit A used for a current steering D/A converter, a current switch basic circuit 1 includes first and second transistors Tr121 and Tr122 included in a differential switch 12. A threshold voltage control circuit 5 has an output terminal Vbout controlling the substrate voltage to be outputted to the substrate terminal of each of the two transistors Tr121 and Tr122 included in the differential switch 12 for controlling the threshold voltage of the two transistors of the differential switch. Accordingly, the present invention improves the decrease in the dynamic range of the current switch basic circuit 1 dependent on the threshold of each of the two transistors in the differential switch 12 and realizes a wider output voltage range without causing deterioration in properties even in a case that the power voltage is reduced in the current switch basic circuit 1.
