    摘要: A circuit and method is provided that allows for communication of digital to analog data over more that one channel employing a single current switching DAC and a current switching multiplexer. The current switching multiplexer is an output stage circuit that is used to steer the current from one output channel to another. The data rate of the data transmitted to the DAC is increased by the number of channels that the data is being transmitted over. The data is then switched from one channel to the other by employing a current switching multiplexer, such that the device provides for the same functionality that conventional devices utilizing a single DAC for multiple channels as opposed to a single DAC for a single channel.

    摘要: A method and apparatus in a DC-feed controller for controlling a subscriber line interface circuit controlling voltage (alternately, current) on a telephone line comprising a pair of wires. A digital feedback signal is subtracted from a predetermined voltage (alternately, current) limit digital value to provide a digital error signal that represents the difference between the voltage (alternately, current) limit digital value and the digital feedback signal. The digital error signal is multiplied by a predetermined digital gain value to provide a scaled digital error value. The scaled digital error value is integrated over time to generate an integrated digital error signal having a first predetermined number n of significant bits. A modified digital error signal is received, comprising a second predetermined number m of bits, where m

    摘要: A pulse-density modulator (10) for producing a pulse density output signal on an output line (36) representing successive parallel digital input words on input terminals (12) has a plurality of full adders (14, 16, 18), each having a carry output (C), and an input (A) for receiving a respective bit of a concurrently applied bit of the parallel input digital words. The overflow output (C) of each of the adders (14, 16, 18) is added as an input (B) of an adder of a next successively higher bit order. A latch (30) receives the carry output (C) of one of the adders (14) in a most significant bit position, with an output of the latch provides a pulse density modulated signal on an output line (36) representing the input digital words. A clock (35) applies clock pulses to the latches (20, 22, 24, 30) at a frequency at least as high as the frequency at which the successive parallel digital input words are applied to the inputs (12) of the adders (14, 16, 18).

    摘要: A technique is provided to linearize a MOS switch on-resistance and the nonlinear junction capacitance. The technique linearizes the sampling switch by using a buffer having substantially unity gain with proper DC shift to drive an isolated bulk terminal of the MOS well to improve the spurious free dynamic range (SFDR). In this way, the 2nd-order effect such as nonlinear body effect (VT(VSB)) and nonlinear junction capacitance (Cj(VSB)) can be substantially removed.

    摘要: The present invention accepts timing and clock signals with a desired frequency and undesired duty cycle CLKIN, and outputs a clock signal CLKOUT with the desired frequency and desired duty cycle. If the clock signal is known to have a duty cycle of greater than 50%, one exemplary embodiment of the present invention delays the rising edge of the clock signal so as to produce a clock signal with a 50% duty cycle. One exemplary embodiment of the present invention comprises a charge pump integrator (102) configured in a feedback loop, the output of the charge pump integrator (102) operable as a controlling node to delay inverter (115). If the clock signal CLKIN at the input of the circuit has a duty cycle of greater than 50%, then the charge pump integrator (102) will, through PBIAS, cause delay inverter 115 to delay of the rising edge of CLKIN through delay inverter (115). The charge pump integrator, through PBIAS, drives the duty cycle of the clock signal towards 50%.
