    摘要: A low voltage differential signal (LVDS) driver circuit with reduced power consumption. A pre-driver stage, implemented as a differential current mode amplifier, is driven by the differential input signal and provides a corresponding differential drive signal, which drives the output stage, implemented as a differential voltage mode amplifier, which, in turn, provides the differential output signal for the load. Total current consumption equals the load current, which is provided by the output stage, plus a much smaller current used by the pre-driver stage.

    摘要: A slow monitor diode having a bandwidth only partially overlapping a lower end of a data transmission spectrum for a data transmission laser is employed to detect and control average output power of the data transmission laser and, from peak-to-peak measurements, optical modulation amplitude. The output current from the monitor diode reaches a peak value for long runs of consecutive logical 1's or 0's. Using peak detectors with a long decay rate, the peak-to-peak signal amplitude, directly representative of optical modulation amplitude, may be determined.

    摘要: A circuit with low noise and reduced offset that feeds an input of an opamp with a programmable feedback resistor that provides variable gain settings. Input biasing currents are varied using control bits that are also used to adjust the gain. When the input signal is small (gain at higher setting), a minimum bias current is provided to source the input voltage swing. This scheme reduces the noise and offset generated by the lower transconductance of a biasing transistor while maintaining a constant SNR and fixed offset even in the presence of relatively small input swings. Also, when the input signal is large (gain at lower setting), a maximum bias current can be provided to accommodate the relatively large input swing level. Although the overall noise and offset current are increased for large input swings, the overall SNR and offset is maintained for relatively lower input swings.

    摘要: An RC calibration circuit, which utilizes a resistor and a variable capacitor connected in parallel, reduces power consumption and increases the accuracy of the calibration by comparing the voltage on the resistor to the voltage on the capacitor after a predetermined time has expired since the capacitor began charging up. The result of the comparison, which indicates whether the voltage on the resistor is greater than the voltage on the capacitor, is then used to adjust the capacitance of the capacitor to servo the RC time constant to a predetermined value.

    摘要: A divide-by-N clock frequency divider producing N non-overlapping clocks each with precise 1/N duty ratio is implemented by a counter, a token generator and N-bit shift register. Every N clock cycles, a pulse is generated as a token from a logical combination of signals from the counter. The pulse is passed along a shift register having balanced load capacitances under control of the clock edge, ensuring a precise 1/N duty ratio that is unaffected by load capacitances from the fault state detection and/or reset circuitry. In this manner, a higher operating frequency may be achieved with low power consumption.
