Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a highly precise differential charge pump circuit which can suppress a common mode error to a minimum and which can prevent the occurrence of common mode voltage fluctuation without a correction instruction. SOLUTION: Two same current sources Gb1 and Gb2 are connected to nodes A and B and they continuously inject current I to the nodes A and B. Two pairs of current sources Gc1 and Gc2 and Gc3 and Gc4, which are switch- controlled, are connected to the nodes A and B and they can pull in current I from the nodes to which the respective current sources are connected. The two current sources of the respective pairs of the current sources are controlled by one of a pair of control signals and the inverse signal of the other signal. Then, the whole two pairs of the current sources which are switch-controlled can be set to the same type (N type). Two current sources are set to the same type (P type) and they are controlled by a common mode feedback loop.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a high-speed processable secondary digital/analog converter(DACQ) which does not increase current consumption but rather decreases current consumption. SOLUTION: A DACQ composed of a pair of serially connected 1st and 2nd linear converter (DAC) has direct coupling between the output node of 1st DAC 1 and the R-2R type resistor circuit network of 2nd DAC 2, corresponding to the LSB step of R-2R type resistor circuit. A high impedance node, especially the input node of 2nd DAC is appropriately removed from a current path, so as to significantly reduce the problem of comparatively long settling time at the high impedance node (having a related originally large parasitic capacitance). The circuit is markedly simplified by the special architecture of this DACQ.
