摘要:
A bandgap reference circuit includes at least one transistor, an amplifier and a start-up circuit. The amplifier is coupled to the transistor(s) to establish a bandgap reference voltage. The start-up circuit, in response to the bandgap reference circuit powering up, isolates an output terminal of the amplifier from at least one input terminal of the amplifier and supplies power to the transistor(s) via the output terminal.
摘要:
An analog to digital converter may achieve an output sampling rate that is not an integer multiple of the system clock. This may be done without using the conventional phase-locked loop circuit that generally requires a longer design time, more testing, and more silicon area. A pseudo clock may be generated from the system clock in which some of the system clock pulses are disabled to achieve a pseudo clock with the desired effective frequency.
摘要:
A bandgap reference circuit utilizes chopper stabilization to reduce reference voltage variation caused by, for example, offset voltage and 1/f noise within an associated amplifier. The input signal of the amplifier is modulated using a high frequency modulation signal. The modulated signal is then amplified and demodulated. In one embodiment, a single-ended chopper amplifier having integrated amplification/demodulation functionality is provided.
