  • Publication number: 20150122034
    Abstract: A detection device includes a driving circuit which drives a physical quantity transducer, a detection circuit which detects a desired signal, a power-supply terminal into which a power-supply voltage is input, a regulator circuit which performs a voltage adjustment of stepping down the power-supply voltage from the power-supply terminal, and supplies a regulated power-supply voltage obtained by the voltage adjustment to the driving circuit and the detection circuit as an operating power-supply voltage, and a buffer circuit which is supplied with the power-supply voltage, receives a drive signal from the driving circuit, and outputs an amplified drive signal in which an amplitude of the drive signal increases to the physical quantity transducer.

  • Publication number: 20150122022
    Abstract: A detection device includes: a drive circuit which receives a feedback signal from a physical quantity transducer and drives the physical quantity transducer; a detection circuit which receives a detection signal from the physical quantity transducer and detects a desired signal; and a control unit which controls switching on/off of an AGC loop in the drive circuit. The drive circuit outputs a drive signal based on a control voltage that is set by the AGC loop in an on-period of the AGC loop to the physical quantity transducer and thus drives the physical quantity transducer in an off-period of the AGC loop.

  • Publication number: 20140305206
    Abstract: A detection device includes a driving circuit that drives a vibrator, and a detection circuit that receives a detection signal from the vibrator and performs a detection process of detecting a physical quantity signal corresponding to a physical quantity from the detection signal. The driving circuit performs intermittent driving in which the vibrator is driven in a driving period, and is not driven in a non-driving period, and the detection circuit performs the detection process of the physical quantity signal in the non-driving period of the intermittent driving.
