Abstract:
The present invention relates to an SAR ADC performing range scaling by processing a signal of a half of a single input signal range by sampling the single input signal in the half of a sampling capacitor. The present invention prevents a voltage loss in a preamplifier and processes the single input signal of a power voltage size in a whole ADC.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A method for correcting a capacitor mismatch and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) using thereof are provided to correct a mismatch between capacitors regardless of the bit numbers of a lower bit and an upper bit. CONSTITUTION: An ADC comprises a capacitor array unit (100) and a correction unit (400). The capacitor array unit includes a separable weighting capacitor having a first end connected to a left unit capacitor row and a second end connected to a right capacitor row; and a correction capacitor connected directly between the first end and a ground terminal the separable weighting capacitor. The capacitor array unit collects a sample of differences between a first reference voltage and an analog input voltage using the right unit capacitor row and the left unit capacitor row in a capacitor mismatch mode. The correction unit determines whether a capacitor mismatch occurs or not based on a digital signal, and changes capacitance of the correction capacitor if the capacitor mismatch occurs.

PURPOSE: A digital to analog converter for revising mismatch between capacitors is provided to reduce error possibility in a display output by revising errors due to mismatch between capacitors. CONSTITUTION: A DAC(Digital To Analog Converter) is composed of three capacitors(C1,C2,C3) with the same capacity as one operational amplifier(10) and switches(S1-S9). The operational amplifier includes a first input terminal, a second input terminal, and an output terminal. The second input terminal is connected to a ground terminal. A second capacitor and a third capacitor are used to revise mismatch between capacitors. The first capacitor, the second capacitor, the third capacitor, and the operational amplifier are differently connected for sampling and mismatch correction according to a turn on and off operation of the switch.

Abstract:
PURPOSE: An analog/digital converter is provided to improve a reliability by compensating output data with an ideal value. CONSTITUTION: An analog/digital conversion control part(10) outputs a control signal for determining an operating bit number of an analog/digital converter. An input voltage detecting part detects an input voltage of an analog signal according to the control signal, and a reference voltage detecting part selectively outputs a value of a reference voltage as an analog signal to output data as a digital signal thus converted. A comparison part(50) compares the input voltage and the reference voltage to output the output data of a digital signal, and a storage part(60) stores the output signal converted into the digital signal via the comparison part, and an output data compensation part(80) compensates the output data stored in the storage part according to a specific program. The analog/digital converter comprises a select part(90) which selects either one of the output data of the storage part and the compensated output data according to the control signal and outputs the selected output data into an internal data bus.

PURPOSE: A resolver digital converter and a method compensating phase thereof are provided to compensate a position measurement error due to phase delay by compensating the phase the output signal from a resolver. CONSTITUTION: A resolver(110) detects an output signal which is changed according to the angular displacement of a rotor. A sinusoidal wave generator(120) generates sinusoidal wave to apply created sinusoidal wave to the resolver. A current amplifier(130) amplifies the current of the created sinusoidal wave and applies it to the resolver. A phase compensator(140) generates a phase compensation signal to make the phase of the created sinusoidal wave same as the phase of the signal outputted from the resolver. A resolver digital conversion circuit(150) converts the phase information of the resolver into a digital signal by using the creased phase compensation signal and the outputted signal from the resolver.

An MDAC circuit capable of correcting a gain error of residual voltage and a sample/hold circuit are provided to correct the gain error of the residual voltage due to insufficient gain of an operation amplifier by using a variable capacitor. An MDAC(Multiplying Digital/Analog Converter) circuit includes a sampling capacitor(Cs), a feedback capacitor(Cf), and an operation amplifier(OPA). A gain compensation unit is connected in parallel with the sampling capacitor. The gain compensation unit samples an analog input signal at a sampling phase, and is connected to plural reference voltages at an amplifying phase, thereby compensating a gain of the operation amplifier. A switching member is switched according to a switch control signal input from an exterior.

A frequency tuning circuit of a continuous-time analog filter using an SAR(Successive Approximation Register) scheme is provided to complete frequency tuning efficiently in a short time even at a high tuning resolution by generating a tuning code of an integrator used in the frequency tuning circuit by using the SAR scheme. A frequency tuning circuit of a continuous-time analog filter of an active-RC type generates a frequency tuning code by using an SAR(Successive Approximation Register) scheme. A frequency tuning code generator determines a code of each bit in sequence as decreasing binary weight starting from an uppermost bit. The frequency tuning time takes as long as N clock periods.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device is provided to compensate for fluctuation of a power supply voltage in a broader region by digitizing information regarding fluctuation of a power supply voltage while using an ADC(analog-to-digital converter) and by decoding the digitized value and selecting a transistor block suitable for a level of a corresponding power supply voltage. An ADC unit(20) receives a power supply voltage and outputs N-bit digital words(N is a natural number) corresponding to the level of the power supply voltage. A decoding unit(30) decodes the N-bit digital words to output M-bit block selection signals(M is 2^N). A plurality of compensation blocks(40) are selectively enabled according to each bit of the block selection signals. A low pass filter(10) removes a noise component from the power supply voltage to apply the noise-removed power supply voltage to the ADC unit.
