摘要:
A differential amplifying circuit that includes a differential pair and a cascode current mirror circuit that forms the load circuit of this differential pair. The cascode current mirror circuit includes a control-terminal-coupled first transistor pair, and second and third transistor pairs that receive first and second bias signals at coupled control terminals, respectively. The second transistor pair is straight-connected between the first transistor pair and the input end and the output end of the cascode current mirror circuit, and the third transistor pair is cross-connected between the first transistor pair and the input end and the output end of the cascode current mirror circuit. The second and third transistor pairs are controlled so as to each be placed in active and inactive states by changing over voltage values of the first and second bias signals, with control being exercised in such a manner that when one of these transistor pairs is in an active state, the other is in an inactive state.

Disclosed is an output circuit including a connection switch and an operation unit. The connection switch receives first and second voltages from first and second terminals, respectively, selects and outputs the first voltage or the second voltage for first to third intermediate terminals, including selection of the same voltage and switches assignment of the first and second voltages to the first to third intermediate terminals responsive to a connection switching signal. The operation unit receives the voltages assigned to the first to third intermediate terminals and outputs to an output terminal a voltage obtained by performing a predetermined operation on the voltages.

An output circuit includes a connection switch and an operation unit. The connection switch includes first to third terminals for receiving first to third voltages, respectively, selects and outputs the first voltage or the second voltage or the third voltage to each of the first to seventh intermediate terminals, including selection of the same voltage for a plurality of the intermediate terminals.

DAC includes a decoder that receives N number of reference voltages and an n-bit digital signal (n 4) to select first to third voltages, and an operational amplifier to output (first voltage+second voltage+2 third voltage)/4 voltage. The operational amplifier is able to output, for respective 2^n combinations of the n-bit digital signal, voltage levels from an Ath level, as a base level, to an (A−1+2^n)th level. The N number of reference voltages include Ath level, (A+4)th level, (A−4+2^n) and (A+2^n), and an at most {−4+2^(n−2)} reference voltages obtained by decimating a pre-set at least one reference voltage from {−3+2^(n−2)} reference voltages that are other than the four number of reference voltages from the {1+2^(n−2)} reference voltages corresponding to the voltage levels spaced each other at an interval of 4 levels from the Ath level. N is not less than 4 and not more than 2^(n−2).

Reference voltages of a reference voltage ensemble are classed into first to (z×S+1)th reference voltage groups, where S is a power of 2 inclusive of 1 and z is a power of 2 plus 1. A decoder includes first to (z×S+1)th sub-decoders provided in association with the first to (z×S+1)th reference voltage groups, and a (z×S+1) input and 2 output type sub-decoder. The first to (z×S+1)th sub-decoders select, from the reference voltage of the first to the (z×S+1)th reference voltage groups, those reference voltages allocated to columns in a two-dimensional array of the reference voltages associated with the values of a first bit group of an input digital signal. The (z×S+1) input and 2 output sub-decoder receives outputs of the first to (z×S+1)th sub-decoders to select the first and second voltages from the reference voltages selected by the first to (z×S+1)th sub-decoders in response to the value of a second bit group of the input digital signal. An interpolation circuit receives the first and second voltages, selected by the decoder, to output a voltage level obtained on interpolation with an interpolation ratio of 1:1 (FIG. 1).
