    摘要: This invention relates to a threshold voltage detection circuit for detecting the threshold voltage of field effect transistors (FETs) and to a semiconductor circuit capable of a stable operation irrespective of the fluctuation of the threshold voltage by utilizing this threshold voltage detection circuit. The source-drain path of first FET is connected in series with that of second FET having substantially the same threshold voltage as that of the first FET and the conductances of these first and second FETs are set to a predetermined ratio to generate a voltage drop associated with the threshold voltage in the first FET. This voltage drop can be used for detecting the threshold voltage and for level-shifting. The output of the series connection of the first and second FETs is applied to the gate of a constant current FET having the same threshold voltage as that of the first and second FETs and the drain current of the constant current FET can thus be set irrespective of the fluctuation of the threshold voltage.

    摘要: A constant voltage circuit according to this invention comprises first means attenuating or dividing fluctuating voltage and an amplifying FET, to the gate of which the output attenuated or divided by the first means is applied and whose drain is connected with the fluctuating voltage through load means. The attenuation ratio or division ratio of the first means, the mutual conductance of the amplifying FET and the impedance of the load means are so set that the voltage drop across the load means cancels the fluctuating amount of the fluctuating voltage. Consequently an output voltage, which is maintained substantially constant, is obtained at the drain of the amplifying FET, independently of fluctuations in the fluctuating voltage, and thus a constant voltage circuit can be obtained. A constant current circuit according to this invention utilizes the constant voltage circuit described above. The output voltage of the constant voltage circuit is supplied to the gate of the constant current FET. Consequently a current, which is maintained substantially constant, flows through the drain-source path of this constant current FET and thus a constant current circuit can be obtained.

    摘要: A constant current circuit includes a first FET providing an input reference current flow, a second FET providing an output current flow and a non-linear impedance element connected between the drain and the gate of the first FET. By setting a parameter of the non-linear impedance element and a parameter of the first FET to have a specific relationship with each other, the output current can be maintained at a substantially definite value irrespective of relatively large variations of the input reference current.

    摘要: A wide-band and high-gain differential amplifier adapted to amplifying transmitted optical signals of the GHz band is constituted by GaAs MESFET's.Two MESFET's Q1 and Q2 are differentially connected to each other. Drains of Q1 and Q2 are connected to load resistances R.sub.L and R.sub.L via a source-drain path of other MESFET's Q3 and Q4 whose gates are grounded in AC-wise.Current by-passing means 4, 4 are connected to the sources of other MESFET's Q3, Q4. DC bias currents of the differential pair of MESFET's Q1, Q2 are set to relatively large values to increase the mutual conductance gm of the differential pair of MESFET's Q1, Q2. Despite a large DC bias current, the current by-passing means 4, 4 decrease the DC voltage drops across the load resistances R.sub.L, R.sub.L, and enable the differntial amplifier to operate on a low power source voltage.

    摘要: A semiconductor circuit including first and second FET's for delivering an output signal without being affected by a change in threshold voltage of the FET's is disclosed. According to one practical form of the semiconductor circuit, the drain-source current path of an additional FET whose gate and source are shorted to each other, is connected in parallel to the drain-source current path of the first FET whose gate and drain are shorted to each other, to make the voltage-current characteristic of the second FET agree with that of the parallel combination of the first and additional FET's. According to another practical form of the semiconductor circuit, a voltage dividing circuit is connected in parallel to the drain-source current path of the first FET, and a divided output voltage from the voltage dividing circuit is applied between the gate and source of each of the first and second FET's.

    摘要: A semiconductor device is constructed so that an insulation film is provided in regions other than a protruding portion of a substrate. A polycrystalline silicon layer and a metal silicide layer are formed over said insulation film to provide a multi-layer structure, and a take-out portion for at least one of the emitter, base, and collector members of a bipolar transistor provided in the mesa region is constituted by a film of this multi-layer structure. By virtue of the use of metal silicide together with the polycrystalline silicon, a very low resistance is achieved which enhances the device's operating speed. Further, the metal silicide is separated from the protruding portion of the substrate by a portion of the polycrystalline silicon to provide a smooth interface with the substrate. This smooth interface significantly reduces crystal defects in the single crystal substrate.
