Abstract: A differential transmission circuit for a communication device performs bidirectional communication via a differential transmission line. The differential transmission circuit include: output transistors that are turned on and off according to a drive signal during a transmission period; a signal generation unit that generates and outputs the drive signal; short-circuit transistors connected between gates and drains of the output transistors; and a cut off unit that cuts off a supply path of the drive signal between the signal generation unit and the gates of the output transistors. The cut off unit cuts off the supply path of the drive signal during a reception period in which a reception operation is performed by the communication device.

Abstract: In a communication system, a control unit and driver units are connected in a daisy chain; each unit includes a corresponding insulated communication circuit, respectively. The control unit measures a communication delay time between the control unit and each driver unit from a response time to transmission of a pulse signal performed to each driver unit during a measurement period. Then, based on each communication delay time, the control unit transmits a shift time to each driver unit for equalizing the timing of signals output by the driver units. When each driver unit receives, from the control unit, an instruction instructing each driver unit to output a signal, each driver unit outputs the signal when the shift time has elapsed.

Abstract: A differential communication driver circuit includes a drive unit that drives differential signal lines connected via capacitors by a source current and a sink current. When a noise detection unit detects that in-phase noise is applied to the differential signal lines, a drive assisting unit maintains an amplitude of a differential signal output to the differential signal lines by increasing a current drive capability of the sink current.

The neural network circuit further includes I-V conversion amplification circuits for converting currents flowing via the memory elements into voltages, a differential amplifier circuit for performing a differential operation on outputs of two I-V conversion amplification circuits, an A-D converter for performing an A-D conversion on a result of the differential operation, and an output determine that, by referring to input signals of the differential amplifier circuit, determines whether an output signal value of the differential amplifier circuit belongs to an active region or an inactive region. Based on a determination result, the input determiner switches over the differential amplifier circuit and the A-D converter between an operating state and a standby state.
