Abstract: PURPOSE: To satisfy timewise limitation conditions to filter components with a filter having serial architecture with a finite impulse response(FIR) while having a simple controller. CONSTITUTION: This oversampling digital filter is composed of a memory means M1 for coefficients, memory means M2 for sampling signals to be filtered, multiplier MU connected to the output terminals of memory means M1 and M2, accumulator AC connected to the output terminal of that multiplier MU, and simple controller CU for controlling elements based on a clock signal CLK received at the input terminal of that accumulator.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an improved circuit for decoding an input digital signal or a stream by generating a signal which is phase-locked by a digital input signal encoded in accordance with two-phase modulation from a master clock signal. SOLUTION: In the case of a two phase modulation digital input stream, a prescribed characteristic is observed. Namely, an input signal is sampled by the drop edge of a clock signal Ck. Thus, the triplet of samples which always have the same logic values are generated. The characteristic can be used for intervention in the division (division) of the master clock signal Ck and for correcting a synchronizing signal Synk generated in a mode where the phase and the consistency of an input digital signal Input are maintained. Thus, correction can substantially and instantaneously be executed and erroneous shift of producing decoding errors can be prevented.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sigma delta modulator securing the stability of a system and simplifying constitution. SOLUTION: The modulator is provided with at least two integration stages A, a comparator generating a signal at a logical level +1 in the case that an inputted signal is positive and a signal of a logical value -1 in the case that the inputted signal is negative without regard to its absolute value, and an adding means adding a feedback signal filtered by at least one low-pass filter B to a signal to be outputted to the last of the stage A. In addition, the modulator is provided with a second comparator which is commonly connected with the output end of the first comparator and outputs a logical signal being a positive value in the case that an inputted signal is positive and being a negative value in the case that the inputted signal is negative, the logical signal is increased in the case that the input signal exceeds one of increasing values or a prescribed threshold larger than it and an outputted logical signal is provided to the filter B.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it possible to generate a low-noise symmetrical reference voltage subjected to temperature compensation by allowing current of a differential pair from a voltage-current converting stage and a current mirror to output two symmetrical reference voltages in a pair of mutual resistance feedback operational amplifiers. SOLUTION: The voltage current converting stage converts a reference voltage which is low noise of an external supply source and also does not depend on a temperature into a current I1. The current mirror of MOSS transistors M1 to M5 generates a current I1 of a differential pair which is a replica of the current I1. Two currents I1 of the currents I1 of the differential pair respectively flow into a pair of mutual resistance feedback operational amplifiers OPABUF and output two symmetrical voltages VH and VL with the voltage VA of an analog ground node A which coincides with voltage VBG as reference. Thermal compensation of the voltages VH and VL is realized according to an interlace type physical layout so as to show the same thermal inclination that is compensated with the ratio of resistance R2/R1.
