摘要:
An over-current protection circuit of a semiconductor circuit including a power transistor for outputting current output, a first output current detection circuit and a current limiter circuit for limiting the output current by stopping the output current of the power transistor for a predetermined period in response to a first detection signal from the output current detection circuit when the output current of the power transistor reaches a predetermined limit value. The over-current protection circuit has an output current detection transistor current-mirror connected to the power transistor and a second output current detection circuit for generating a second detection signal according to an output current of the output current detection transistor when the output current reaches the predetermined limit value. Further, the output current of the power transistor is cut off for the predetermined period by operating the current limiter circuit in response to the second detection signal.

A light receiving detection circuit has a light receiving element configured to receive light emitted from a corresponding projection element, a current/voltage conversion circuit that converts a current signal passing through the light receiving element into a voltage signal, and a filter portion that has a plurality of stages. The filter portion has a high-pass filter and an amplifying circuit. The high-pass filter is able to be switched such that a time constant of the high-pass filter increases when the light receiving element receives light emitted by the corresponding projection element such that the time constant decreases when other projection elements except for the corresponding projection element emit the light.

A parallel monitor circuit having a simple circuit configuration, in which a voltage divider circuit can be formed with resistors having the same resistance value, includes plural capacitors are connected in series, and a bypass device of each of parallel monitor circuits is connected in parallel with each capacitor. Plural voltages Va different from one another by a constant voltage are sequentially outputted from a digital-to-analog converter, and the voltages Va are inputted to plural parallel monitor circuits. When a charging voltage is higher than a monitor voltage determined by the voltage Va, each capacitor discharges through the bypass device, and the capacitor is kept at a predetermined monitor voltage.

A back electromotive force detection circuit 12 incorporates an A/D conversion circuit 14 that converts the output from a differential amplifier circuit A2 into a digital signal and an offset calculation circuit 15 that sets the resistance value of a variable resistor R2 according to the output from the A/D conversion circuit 14. Based on the difference between the output from the A/D conversion circuit 14 as obtained when the drive current fed to a motor coil L equals zero and the output from the A/D conversion circuit 14 as obtained when the drive current fed to a motor coil L equals a predetermined value, the offset calculation circuit 15 sets the resistance value of the variable resistor R2.

When the drive current fed to a VCM 3 is large, a driver D2 is turned on, and a driver D3 is turned off so that the current detected by a current detection amplifier A1 is fed back based on the voltage across a detection resistor RS1. When the drive current fed to the VCM 3 is small, the driver D2 is turned off, and the driver D3 is turned on so that the current detected by a current detection amplifier A2 is fed back based on the voltage across a detection resistor RS2.
