Provided are two monitor circuits for monitoring two input signals of an input stage differential amplifier, respectively, and two monitor circuit for monitoring two output signals of the input stage differential amplifier, respectively. When failure occurs at the bridge circuit of a sensor element or at the input stage differential amplifier, the monitoring units or the monitoring units detect abnormality, which makes it possible to detect the failure of the sensor element or the input stage differential amplifier. Therefore it is possible to detect failure such as a disconnection or a short circuit of the bridge circuit of the sensor element and failure which has occurred at the amplifier for amplifying outputs of the sensor element.

This invention provides a comparator circuit which outputs a stable waveform without oscillation even if a gradient of a change of a comparison input signal is small and determines a magnitude of the comparison input signal within a predetermined threshold value regardless of the increase/decrease direction of the comparison input signal. A comparator circuit 100 comprises a capacitative element 4 which is charged or discharged corresponding to a difference of potential between a comparison input signal IN and a reference input signal REF, an analog buffer portion 5 which outputs high level if the voltage is above a threshold voltage Vth and low level if it is less than the threshold voltage Vth, an edge detecting portion 7 which detects leading and trailing edges of the analog buffer portion 5 so as to output an up signal UP and a down signal DOWN and a charge pump portion 8 which charges a capacitative portion corresponding to the up signal UP and discharges the capacitative portion corresponding to the down signal DOWN.

A temperature characteristic correction method enabling easy setting of correction points, while reducing deviations of an output signal from a target value and preventing power supply noise and power consumption from increasing. The method includes storing correction patterns, each of which includes correction points set at a temperature interval that differs between the correction patterns. The method further includes storing correction data for each correction point in each correction pattern, selecting a correction pattern corresponding to the temperature dependent characteristic of the input signal from the correction patterns, and correcting the temperature dependent characteristic of the input signal with the selected correction pattern and the correction data corresponding to the selected correction pattern.

An intercom apparatus has a main line connecting intercom master stations in respective residential rooms. Each master station has a terminal unit which is separate from and removable from the master station, so that the terminal unit can be removed according to need while keeping the connection. The intercom apparatus further has an entrance substation by which the master stations in residential rooms may be called from the entrance substation through the main line for bilateral communication. The terminal unit has terminals for connecting with intercom master stations by a station-to-station spanning wiring forming the main line and a terminal board on which the terminals are mounted for electrical connection with the main line path. A mounting bracket, by which the terminal unit is detachably mounted, is provided in a space which is formed in the backside of the intercom master station.
摘要:
A method and circuit for preventing an output signal, which has been corrected through digital correction or analog correction, from deviating from a target value and for preventing power supply noise and power consumption from increasing. A sensor amplification circuit receives output of a sensor as an input signal. Correction points are set at predetermined temperature intervals. The sensor amplification circuit performs digital correction for correcting the input signal with correction data set for each correction point. Further, the sensor amplification circuit performs a second correction for correcting the input signal between the correction points with gradient data calculated from the correction data for two of the correction points that are adjacent to each other.
