  • Patent number: 7978750
    Abstract: A microcontroller is disposed on a receiving part of a wireless system in order to process a demodulation signal generated by a receiver circuit, and includes a memory and a CPU. The memory stores a control program of the microcontroller. The control program thereof includes a dual loop routine for an operation in reception standby mode. The dual loop routine has a first loop and a second loop included in the first loop. The CPU has an instruction set consisting of a plurality of instructions, and executes the instructions according to the program stored in the memory. The CPU executes an instruction irrelevant to an operation when the microcontroller is in reception mode during the second loop a number of times. The number of times is at least such that noise caused by the repetition of the second loop is lowered below a desired level.

  • Patent number: 6600434
    Abstract: A zero transition voltage and a full transition voltage are inputted into the A/D converter, digital converted values of these voltages are fed back to a device fluctuation correction circuit and H side and L side reference voltages AVRH and AVRL are determined so as to obtain digital outputs corresponding to the respective transition voltages. Also, the digital output of the A/D converter is fed back to a high resolution corresponding circuit and a difference between AVRL and AVRH is decreased to be half as before by changing AVRL or AVRH according to an analog input voltage applied to the A/D converter and A/D conversion is performed again. By repeating this operation, significant bit values are obtained. A merge circuit merges the significant bit values with less significant bit values outputted from the A/D converter.
