    摘要: A differential charge pump for use in a phase locked loop. The charge pump generates a voltage difference signal proportional to the duration of first and second pulse trains provided by a phase comparator. The charge pump includes a differential amplifier for generating the difference signal, first and second RC filter networks connected between the noninverting and inverting terminals of the differential amplifier and a reference node, respectively. Parallel, all-NPN switching networks apply charging current pulses to the first RC filter network in response to the first pulse train and they apply charging current pulses to the second RC filter network in response to the second pulse train.

    摘要: A bias current cancellation circuit provides current to the bases of a pair of transistors forming a differential amplifier. A transistor of matched characteristics to the differential amplifier pair is operated so that its base current replicates the base currents of the differential transistor pair. This replicated base current is inverted by a current mirror which is connected to the bases of the differential transistional pair. A second order cancellation error caused by base current differences in the current mirror is cancelled by a feedback circuit so that only the base current of the matching transistor affects the currents supplied to differential amplifier.

    摘要: A configurable device uses a plurality of parallel units which are made up of cells for storing individual bits of information. These cells are identified by address signals and selected to be interrogated. The selected cells are interrogated to determine information stored therein and a signal is produced which corresponds to that information. If a nonfunctional cell is detected within a parallel unit, that parallel unit may be decoupled from the interrogator. The remainder of the parallel units are shifted to different interrogators thereby effectively eliminating use of the decoupled parallel unit which contains the nonfunctional cell.

    摘要: An amplifier output stage includes current limiting circuitry for limiting the current in the output stage if the output terminal is shorted to ground. The current sinking and the current sourcing output transistors each have a current limiting circuit which mirrors the collector current of the output transistor, produces a voltage which is a function of the mirrored collector current, and controls base current to the output transistor as a function of the voltage. The output current limiting function, therefore, is provided without sacrificing output voltage swing of the output stage.

    摘要: A CMOS output buffer interconnects binary logic integrated circuits. The output buffer is readily configurable through variation of a single metallization mask during fabrication for providing interconnection of integrated circuits through either transmission lines or lumped loads. The CMOS output buffer provides a pull-up circuit for pulling an output terminal to a voltage level corresponding to a first logical state and a pull-down circuit for pulling the output terminal to the complementary logical state. The pull-up and pull-down circuits each include a plurality of parallel connectable output drivers. A selected number of output drivers can be connected to the output terminal during fabrication of the integrated circuit through the appropriate metallization mask. The pull-up and pull-down circuits each include a distributed, continuous control electrode providing for delayed propagation of actuation signals. Selective metallization between points of a control electrode prescribes different time rates of propagation of an actuation signal.

    摘要: A single chip monolithic integrated successive approximation analog-to-digital converter includes a test mode terminal for receiving shift register test mode control signals and successive approximation mode control signals. Digital test data signals are applied to a test data terminal. A trimmable digital-to-analog converter (DAC) is connected to receive digital signals and converts these signals to analog signals of corresponding values. A successive approximation and shift register is coupled to the test mode terminal and the test data terminal. During post-fabrication processing, the successive approximation and shift register operates in a shift register test mode in response to the test mode control signals. Test signals of a known value are serially received and applied in parallel to the DAC. The DAC can then be trimmed to required specifications. The successive approximation and shift register operates in a successive approximation mode in response to successive approximation mode control signals.

    摘要: A timing synchronizing circuit with a phase locked loop. A multiplexor is employed to cause the phase locked loop to alternate between a self-excited mode for maintaining the frequency of a recovered timing signal and a mode in which state transitions of a baseband data signal are compared with the phase locked loop feedback signal to adjust the frequency of the recovered timing signal.

    摘要: A skew compensated RS422 buffer includes a skew compensation circuit and an output driver. The output driver is connected to receive a complementary pair of compensated drive signals, and provides complementary buffer output signals in response thereto. Due to asymmetric switching characteristics, buffer output signals in response to falling edge drive signals are delayed by an inherent skew period with respect to buffer output signals in response to rising edge drive signals. The skew compensation circuit includes a NOR gate and an AND gate, both of which have a first input terminal connected to receive buffer input signals. The buffer input signals are also applied to second input terminals of both the NOR gate and AND gate through delay gates which delay signal propagation by delay periods substantially equal to the inherent skew period of the output driver. A complementary pair of compensated drive signals are provided at output terminals of the NOR and AND gates, thereby compensating for the asymmetric switching characteristics of the output driver means.

    摘要: Trimming of input offset voltage of a diferential amplifier is provided by a pair of resistance networks which are connected to the emitters of a pair of current mirror transistors. By adjusting the resistances of the resistance networks, the adjustment currents flowing through the current mirror transistors are selected to cancel out the input offset voltage of the differential amplifier. Each resistance network includes a plurality of resistors connected in series with a low resistance shorting link connected in parallel with each of the plurality of resistances. The input offset voltage is trimmed by selectively cutting the shorting links with a two-phase measure and trim process.
