    摘要: A variable time constant integrator includes an amplifier configured to generate an output signal, a capacitor coupled to provide feedback to the amplifier, and a variable gain element coupled to the output of the amplifier and to the capacitor. The variable gain element is configured to provide the product of a gain and the output signal to the capacitor. The variable gain element is also configured to receive an indication of a new value of the gain and to responsively set the gain equal to the new value of the gain. Adjusting the gain of the variable gain element adjusts the integrator's time constant.

    摘要: Provided are integrator circuit topologies that enable continuous integration without reset of the integrator circuit. One such integrator circuit includes a first integrator and a second integrator, each of the two integrators having a non-inverting terminal. Each of the non-inverting terminals is connected to an input node to alternately receive an input current for continuous integrator circuit integration without integrator circuit reset. The inverting terminal of the second integrator can be connected to an inverting terminal of the first integrator. The non-inverting terminal of the second integrator can be connected to an output of the first integrator through a first capacitor, and an output of the second integrator can be connected to a non-inverting terminal of the first integrator through a second capacitor. With such a capacitor connection, the capacitors alternately charge and discharge, based on integrator input current that is alternately directed between the non-inverting terminals of the integrators.

    摘要: A current pulse receiving circuit suitable for converting a current pulse converted by a photodetector from a light pulse received in optical communications and outputting a logic level voltage pulse with an accurate pulse width is disclosed. When an output signal from a current-to-voltage converter circuit is detected to have a large amplitude by a large signal detection circuit, an amount of offset cancellation of a DC cancellation circuit is decreased to limit the amplitude of the output signal from the current-to-voltage converter circuit. Since the amplitude of an input signal of an amplifier circuit is limited, tail characteristics at a trailing edge of a pulse are small and an output is provided at an output terminal with an accurate pulse width.

    摘要: In a light receiving circuit for use in electro-optic sampling oscilloscope which receives first and second optical, photodiodes 51 and 52 are connected in series between a positive bias power supply 50P and a negative bias power supply 50N. The photodiodes 51 and 52 receive optical signals whose polarization state correspond to the voltage of a signal to be measured and convert the thus-received optical signals into electric signals. An amplifier 53 amplifies an electric current appearing in a point of connection P between the photodiodes 51 and 52. A current monitor 54 detects the electric signal converted by the photodiode 51, and a current monitor 57 detects the electric signal converted by the photodiode 52. The electric signal detected by the current monitor 54 is subjected to analog-to-digital conversion by an analog-to-digital converter 55, and the electric signal detected by the current monitor 57 is subjected to analog-to-digital conversion by an analog-to-digital converter 58. A control section formed from a subtraction circuit 60 controls a ratio of polarization between the optical signals such that the difference between the value of the current detected by the current monitor 54 and the value of the current detected by the current monitor 57 becomes smaller.

    摘要: A system and method, wherein the dielectric absorption of a capacitor is cancelled by a compensating circuit. One embodiment uses a compensation circuit comprising a compensating capacitor with substantially identical characteristics as the capacitor to be compensated in an integrator circuit. The effects of the dielectric absorption of the capacitor in the integrator circuit are reduced or eliminated because the dielectric absorption of the compensating capacitor cancels the dielectric absorption of the capacitor in the integrator circuit. Another embodiment uses compensation circuitry to reduce or eliminate the effects of dielectric absorption in any particular capacitor. The compensation capacitor in the compensation circuitry has a higher rate of dielectric absorption and a lower capacitance value than the capacitor whose dielectric absorption effects are to be reduced or eliminated. In another embodiment, the effects of the dielectric absorption of a capacitor are reduced or eliminated by choosing a compensation capacitor in the compensation circuitry with the same dielectric absorption as the capacitor to be compensated. The dielectric absorption of the compensation capacitor is scaled by the resistors in the compensation circuitry which determine the gain of the amplifier in the compensation circuitry.
