    摘要: A peak and valley measuring circuit (40) featuring a single digital-to-analog converter (DAC) (100), a peak counter (110), a valley counter (120), and a comparator (130). The peak and valley measuring circuit (40) uses the peak counter (110) when detecting peaks of the recovered audio signal and the valley counter (120) when detecting valleys of the recovered audio signal. The DAC (100) is used in conjunction with one of the counters (110) or (120) depending on whether peaks or valleys are being detected, and is preferably a current-mode DAC.

The PLL circuit (200) comprises a phase detector (210), a transconductance amplifier (212) and a current controlled oscillator (ICO) (214).

The ICO (214) is coupled to the transconductance amplifier (212) and the second output of the phase detector (210) and generates an output signal having a frequency which is proportional to an input current signal. The output signal of the ICO (214) is coupled to the second signal input of the phase detector (212).

    摘要: A data limiter for a radio pager is described in which an analog input signal including a data signal is compared in a comparator with a threshold voltage which is adjusted by means of a feedback network. The network consists of transconductance amplifiers having predetermined input offset voltages related to the amplitude of the analog signal which monitor the departure of the analog signal from a reference voltage to provide output currents which are integrated by an integrator and applied as the threshold voltage to the comparator and as the reference voltage to the transconductance amplifiers.

    摘要: A configuration of two transistors and two capacitors provides a current mode second-order active filter for IC implementation with low-pass, bandpass and high-pass capabilities. The filter frequency is tunable over a wide range, independently of filter Q and gain, by varying a DC bias current. The filter can provide one-port impedance functions, and two-port voltage, current and impedance transfer functions. With the addition of a second biasing current source, the filter Q can be controlled by adjusting the ratio of the two biasing current sources. Enhanced dynamic range and large-signal performance can be achieved by the addition of linear resistors, with trade-offs in tunable frequency range and frequency linearity.
