Patents by Inventor Chan-Tang Tsen

Chan-Tang Tsen has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11881851
    Abstract: A signal processing circuit. In some embodiments, the signal processing circuit includes a first sample and hold circuit and a second sample and hold circuit. The first sample and hold circuit may include: a hold capacitor; an input switch connected between a common input node and the hold capacitor; a signal path amplifier having an input connected to the hold capacitor; and an output switch connected between an output of the signal path amplifier and a common output node. An input of a voltage feedback amplifier may be connected to the hold capacitor, and an output of the voltage feedback amplifier may be operatively coupled to an internal node of the input switch.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 4763026
    Abstract: A sense amplifier circuit for single-ended data characterized by the responsiveness of the reference voltage to variations in processing parameters and tolerance for noise. Matching of the dataline voltage to the reference voltage enables the comparison of data with the reference to operate with greater accuracy. Isolation of the reference voltage preserves its integrity as a high logic state from subsequent variations in the dataline.
