    摘要: For the dynamic compensation of the offset voltage in such converters each non-inverting comparator input (+) is connected via a first transfer transistor (T11, T12, T1p) to the signal input (SE) and via a second transfer transistor (T21, T22, T2p) to the associated voltage divider tap of the voltage divider as applied to the reference voltage (Ur). Moreover, each inverting comparator input (-), via a capacitor (C1, C2, Cp) is applied to the associated voltage divider tap and, via a third transfer transistor (T31, T32, T3p) and across a resistor (R'1, R'2, R'p) arranged in series therewith, to the associated comparator output. The second and third transfer transistors are rendered conductive during short intervals (T) between conversions by the clock signal (F), and the first transfer transistors are rendered non-conductive via the inverter (IV), and during the conversion time (t) the first transfer transistors are rendered conductive, and the second and third transfer transistors are rendered non-conductive. In television receivers, such MOS parallel A/D converters are suitable for processing the video signal, in which case the line sweep period serves as the conversion time (t), and the line fly-back period serves as the interval (T) between conversions.

    摘要: The threshold comparator includes a switching FET including a gate electrode and a load FET connected in series across a source of potential where the load FET is configured to provide a saturation current less than that of the switching FET with a first input level to the gate electrode and provide a saturation current greater than that of the switching FET with a second input level to the gate electrode. The output voltage of the switching FET changes value abruptly when the input level at its gate electrode attains the second input level where the saturation current in the switching FET is less than the saturation current of the load FET.

    摘要: An indicator arrangement includes comparators for parallel comparison of an analog input voltage with digitalizing standard voltages to digitalize the input voltage and an indicator for indicating digitalized output. The arrangement is provided with a controller periodically switched between a first control state and a second control state. The controller in the first control state allows the comparators to perform comparison in a first voltage range of the analog input voltage while in the second control state it allows the comparators to perform comparison in a second voltage range of the analog input voltage.There is provided an encoder for coding the digitalized output of the comparators with a first coding mode in the first control state of the controller and coding the digitalized output of the comparators with a second coding mode in the second control state. The encoder is adapted to drive the indicator with a first or second mode according to the state of the controller.

    摘要: In an analog to digital converter in which each sampled portion of an incoming video or other analog signal is converted to a digital character in a plurality of parallel conversions occurring serially; the range of the voltage level reference signals of descending magnitude which are applied to comparators for effecting a relatively fine parallel conversion of a sampled analog signal is selected to be larger than, and offset in respect, to the steps or increments of the voltage level reference signals of descending magnitude which are applied to comparators for effecting a preceding relatively coarser parallel conversion, and the encoded outputs from the serially occurring parallel conversions are digitally added with the least significant bit of the encoded output from each preceding relatively coarser parallel conversion being accorded the same weight as the most significant bit of the encoded output from the next following relatively finer parallel conversion so as to eliminate from the result of the digital addition defects that would otherwise arise from inaccuracies in the voltage level reference signals and/or in the comparing operations of the comparators.

The outputs of the comparators provide respectively the digital word output of the analog to digital converter wherein the output state of the comparators are dependent upon the output state of the prior higher order comparator and where the resolution of the analog to digital converter is dependent on the number of stages of comparators utilized.

    摘要: The specification and drawings disclose 10 photocells arranged to view a full cycle of a space distributed analog signal. Each photocell is coupled to the input of an amplifier whose output rests in one binary state if the input exceeds one level and rests in another binary state if its input falls below another level. Of the large number of combinations in which the binary outputs of the amplifiers can exist, logic circuitry responsive to certain combinations only produces one unique output for each incremental displacement of the periodically varying signal.
