    摘要: Two Hall effect devices are formed on a major surface of a silicon single crystal substrate lying in parallel to the (100) crystalline plane and series-connected to form a magnetic sensor. Each of the Hall effect devices has a pair of drive electrodes spaced apart from each other in a direction substantially parallel to the or crystalline axis and held at different potentials for flowing therebetween a drive current in said direction to drive the Hall effect device and a pair of Hall terminals for developing a Hall voltage when exposed to an external magnetic field. A comparator compares the potentials of two selected Hall terminals of the different Hall devices with each other to produce a compared signal. A switching element is connected to one of the Hall devices to control the potential of the Hall terminals to equalize the potentials of the two selected Hall terminals in response to the compared signal. Two non-selected Hall terminals develop positive and negative Hall voltages, respectively, relative to the selected Hall terminals so that the magnetic sensor produces a totalized Hall voltage of the two Hall effect devices.

    摘要: A thermosensitive semiconductor device has a semiconductor substrate of one conductivity type which is used as the common collector of at least two Darlington-connected transistors. The base of the first stage transistor is connected to the common collector to form a first terminal and the emitter of the final stage transistor forms a second terminal. A constant current source is connected between the first and second terminals. To reduce deviations in the temperature response, a second collector region can be used and which can extend to a depth deeper than the depth of the emitter of the final stage transistor to absorb some of the carriers injected by the emitter.

    摘要: A temperature detecting device comprises a semiconductor diode temperature sensor having a resistance characteristic which varies with variations in temperature, and a constant current circuit connected in series. A power source is connected in parallel with the series circuit and connected in parallel with a constant voltage circuit. A resistance ladder circuit is connected between an output terminal of the constant voltage circuit and one terminal of the power source, and an output terminal of the resistance ladder circuit is connected to a first input terminal of a differential amplifier. A second input terminal of the differential amplifier is connected to a connection point of the semiconductor diode and the constant current circuit. In operation, the voltage drops across cumulatively successive resistors of the resistance ladder circuit are compared with the voltage drop across the semiconductor diode temperature sensor by the differential amplifier and in response to a favorable comparison, the output logic state of the differential amplifier changes to thereby provide an output temperature signal.
