    摘要: A variable capacitance circuit includes a capacitor array having a first capacitor in which a plurality of MIM capacitors are coupled in parallel and a second capacitor in which a plurality of MIM capacitors are coupled in series, and a switch array having a first switch and a second switch. A shape pattern of at least one of a first electrode of the first capacitor, a first ground shield, a second electrode of the second capacitor, and a second ground shield is set so that a first capacitance difference per 1 LSB between first capacitance values of the first capacitor when the first switch is turned on and off and a second capacitance difference per 1 LSB between second capacitance values of the second capacitor when the second switch is turned on and off are close to each other.

    摘要: A circuit device includes a selector to which first to n-th voltages are input, an A/D converter circuit to which output voltages of the selector are input as input voltages, and first to n-th quantization error hold circuits that hold charges corresponding to quantization errors in A/D conversion of the first to n-th voltages. The A/D converter circuit performs A/D conversion of an input voltage by a successive approximation operation using a charge redistribution type D/A converter circuit and performs k-th A/D conversion on an i-th voltage by using a charge held in an i-th quantization error hold circuit in (k−1)th A/D conversion of the i-th voltage to output A/D conversion result data DOUT in which the quantization error is noise-shaped.

    摘要: A circuit device includes an oscillation circuit and a processing circuit that generates capacitance control data. The oscillation circuit includes a variable capacitance circuit whose capacitance value is variably controlled based on the capacitance control data, and an oscillation frequency thereof is controlled based on the capacitance value of the variable capacitance circuit. The variable capacitance circuit includes a capacitor array. The capacitor array includes a plurality of capacitors each having a binary-weighted capacitance value, and a plurality of switches that are on-off controlled based on the capacitance control data. The processing circuit outputs the capacitance control data, which is subjected to dithering, so as to switch the capacitance value of the variable capacitance circuit between a first capacitance value and a second capacitance value in a time division manner.
