Patent number: 10382090Abstract: Provided is a technique that can generate a spread spectrum clock signal in all of an upper-spread mode, a down-spread mode, and a center-spread mode. A spread spectrum clock generator (2) spreads a spectrum of a signal with a predetermined carrier frequency to generate a spread spectrum clock signal under the control of a control unit (13). The control unit includes carrier frequency correction control means (13b). The carrier frequency correction control means shifts the predetermined carrier frequency to generate, from one spread mode, a spread spectrum clock signal of another pseudo spread mode.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2018Date of Patent: August 13, 2019Assignee: ANRITSU CORPORATIONInventors: Ittetsu Kaji, Kazuhiro Yamane

Patent number: 9832045Abstract: The synthetic circuit 16 synthesizes an offset voltage from an offset voltage generator 14 with a signal output from the other end of the first coil 15 and supplies the synthesized signal to the other end of the second coil 18 through an output matching resistor 17. A potential difference detection unit 21 detects a potential difference between both ends of the output matching resistor 17. A comparison circuit 23 outputs an overcurrent detection signal when a voltage value of a detection signal from the potential difference detection unit 21 exceeds a positive or negative threshold voltage. When the overcurrent detection signal is input, a control unit 24 turns off the switching means 19 and forcibly disconnects the synthetic circuit 16 from the output matching resistor 17.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2015Date of Patent: November 28, 2017Assignee: ANRITSU CORPORATIONInventor: Kazuhiro Yamane
