Genichi Fujiwara 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: 7551010
    Abstract: A PLL circuit has an averaging device for averaging a rectangular wave signal output from a phase comparator at every period of a reference clock signal, and for outputting the average value. After the establishment of the phase synchronization of the PLL circuit, the average value of the averaging device becomes a stationary reference level. Accordingly, the output clock signal generated by a voltage controlled oscillator can reduce its output frequency fluctuations in accordance with the reference level.

  • Publication number: 20070201594
    Abstract: A phase locked loop (PLL) circuit including a phase comparator 2 that compares a phase of a reference clock signal with that of a comparison clock signal to produce a phase comparison signal having three-level outputs of a high voltage (H) level, a low voltage (L) level, and a reference level, and outputs an H or L level signal for duration corresponding to a detected phase difference or outputs a reference level signal when there is no phase difference detected; a level shifter 3 that serves to hold the rectangular waveform of the phase comparison signal from the phase comparator 2; a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) 4 that advances the phase upon receipt of the H level signal and delay the phase upon receipt of the L level signal; and a frequency divider 5 that divides a frequency of an oscillation clock from the VCO 4 to produce a comparison clock signal.

  • Patent number: 5151923
    Abstract: A voice frequency communication apparatus which is capable of detecting and processing the voice frequency terminal signal and non-voice frequency terminal signal and is also capable of realizing communication with ordinary voice frequency terminal signal and non-voice frequency terminal signal without erroneous changeover of the signal processing path because of always monitoring the sending/receiving data with CPU because of providing the constitution to always monitor the sending/receiving data by providing a central control circuit (CPU) having the constitution to always monitor the digital signal output of the detection circuit having the fuction to convert, when the analog input signal is non-voice frequency terminal signal, such non-voice frequency terminal signal into the digital data signal after detecting such signal and to convert, on the contrary, the digital data signal into the analog non-voice frequency terminal signal and the digital data signal to be input from the digital communication line
