  • Patent number: 9705522
    Abstract: Systems and methods according to one or more embodiments are provided for a high speed digital to analog upconverter that provides for converting a plurality of parallel digital data bits to an analog output signal. In one example, a system includes a decoder circuit configured to receive a plurality of decoder input data bits and provide a plurality of decoded parallel digital data bits. The system also includes a mixer circuit configured to combine each of the decoded parallel digital data bits with a conversion clock signal to provide frequency shifted digital data bits, wherein the frequency shifted digital data bits are time misaligned with each other. The system also includes a synchronizer circuit configured to time align the frequency shifted digital data bits. The system further includes a switching network configured to generate an analog output signal in response to the time aligned frequency shifted digital data bits.

  • Patent number: 6462496
    Abstract: A control circuit for motor current including a circuit to generate a voltage to indicate the actual motor current, a first convert circuit to convert the voltage indicative of the motor current to a current, a compare circuit to compare the current indicating the motor current with a reference current and generate a difference current between the current indicating the motor current and the reference current, and a second convert circuit to convert the difference current to a voltage to indicate a difference in motor current from the reference current.
