Abstract: An electronic circuit includes a bandgap reference circuit and a start-up circuit for starting up the bandgap reference circuit. The bandgap reference circuit includes at least one electric path having a semiconductor diode and a resistor connected in series with said semiconductor diode, wherein the voltage across the resistor is proportional to the absolute temperature of the semiconductor diode. The start-up circuit assists starting up the bandgap reference circuit until the voltage across the resistor reaches a preset threshold voltage, and the start-up circuit turns off automatically when the voltage across the resistor has reached the threshold voltage.

Abstract: The semiconductor component has an integrated capacitance structure with several strip elements (SE) of which a first group represents a first electrode and a second group a second electrode. The first and second strip elements intermesh with each other at least partially and at least one strip element has a non-constant cross-sectional surface area. This strip element can have a tapering cross-section to form a wedge : The strip elements can be formed in several metal plated planes of the component.

Abstract: The memory cell (500) has two transistors (501, 502) whose source and drain connections are, respectively, coupled with nodes (503, 504). Transistors (509, 510) reduce leakage currents, which flow through non-volatile programmable resistors (507, 508), respectively. Source or drain connections of the resistors are coupled with connectors of the resistors or with connectors of the transistor (501, 502), respectively. An independent claim is also included for a semiconductor device with a non-volatile memory cell.

Abstract: To calibrate equations between weightings of a network, where one equation represents a weighting as a function of other weightings, the equations are solved to determined the weighting values. For one or more ratios between the weighting values of respective two weightings, fixed values are used, and for the remaining weightings, the weighting values are determined by solving the equations with the fixed values of the ratios. An independent claim is included for an A/D or D/A converter.

Abstract: A circuit configuration for processing a signal of a sensor includes an amplifier for amplifying the signal of the sensor. This signal has switch-over points between different signal states. The circuit configuration is constructed in such a manner that the amplifier and the sensor operate continuously in a chopper mode. Furthermore, a control loop is provided for determining offset components in the signal of the sensor and for removing the offset components from the signal of the sensor.

Abstract: A sensor, in particular a micromechanical pressure sensor, has two identical capacitive partial structures coupled to an evaluation circuit. In the case of in-phase driving, an additive signal is present as a pressure-dependent useful signal. In the case of in-antiphase driving, a difference signal is present as a diagnostic signal.

Abstract: Phase detector has inputs for clock and control signals, the latter corresponding to a phase control signal in normal operating conditions, which is dependent on the phase difference of supplied signals. The detector is designed so that after output of a phase control pulse, it is switched into a blocked state in which the output of phase control pulses is blocked. When a clock pulse is received, it is switched back into normal operating state.

Abstract: In a first operating state, the output signal (32) is the clock signal (20). In a second, different operating state, the output signal is formed by the PLL (phase-locked loop) signal (28) of the phase control loop (10, 12, 14) and the clock signal (20). An Independent claim is included for corresponding equipment.

Abstract: The sensor arrangement generates an analogue output signal with successive maxima and minima. A first output signal generator (4-9,11,23) produces a first alternating output signal (5) according to the sensor signal null (200) crossings. A process controller (25) determines a first phase in which the first signal is output and a calibration phase in which a second alternating signal (5') is output. An extreme value detector (16,17) performs phase-shifted detection of the successive maxima and minima. A null crossing setting device sets imaginary null crossings of the sensor signal following the detected extremes. A second alternating output signal is generated according to the imaginary null crossings.
