Abstract: Two T filters, one of which includes two resistive elements and one capacitive element and the other of which includes two capacitive elements and one resistive element, are inserted in a negative-feedback section of an operational amplifier, and a resistive element and a capacitive element are connected between each of intermediate nodes and a signal input terminal. A resistive element and a capacitive element which are connected to each other in parallel are connected between the signal input terminal and an inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier. With this configuration, overall admittances where elements connected to the corresponding intermediate nodes are in parallel connection are equal to each other.

Abstract: An integrator includes an operational amplifier, a first filter connected to an inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier, and a second filter connected between the inverting input terminal and an output terminal of the operational amplifier. The first filter includes n resistive elements connected in series, and (n?1) capacitive elements each having one end connected to an interconnecting node of the resistive elements and the other end connected to ground. The second filter includes n capacitive elements connected in series, and (n?1) resistive elements each having one end connected to an interconnecting node of the capacitive elements and the other end connected to ground.

Abstract: An integrator is provided which can reduce a disturbance in the current waveform of a current DA converter in order to improve the SNR of a ?? modulator, for example. The integrator includes an operational amplifier, and feedback paths provided in parallel between the output terminal and inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier. In one of the feedback paths, an integrating capacitor and at least one resistor are connected in series. In the other feedback path, a second integrating capacitor whose capacitance value is smaller than that of the integrating capacitor is provided.

Abstract: In a DSM including a loop in which an output signal of a quantizer is digitally processed, and fed back through a DAC to an analog filter, the quantizer quantizes an analog signal from an analog filter section to output a digital signal. The digital signal from the quantizer is digitally processed in a first-order recursive filter circuit including a variable gain amplifier and a delay element. A LUT receives both the digital signal from the quantizer and a table control signal, which is an output signal from the recursive filter circuit, and stores in advance compensation values corresponding to the both signals. A compensation value from the LUT is used to provide a digital output signal compensated for a delay. The digital output signal is converted into an analog signal in the DAC, and then subtracted from an analog input signal in the analog filter section.

Two capacitive elements and a resistive element are coupled between a second node and each of the inverting input terminal, the output terminal, and the common node. Two capacitive elements are coupled between the second node and each of the signal input terminal, and the common node.

The D/A converter inputs the generated analog current signal to an inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier.

Abstract: In a flash A/D converter, a predictor predicts next analog input data based on a digital output signal from an A/D converter, and outputs prediction data. Based on the prediction data from the predictor, a controller turns on comparators having reference voltages near the prediction data, and in order to ensure a certain degree of A/D conversion accuracy even when the prediction fails, also turns on even-numbered comparators 103.2a (where a is 0 to 7), for example. In this manner, even when prediction of next analog input data fails, a 4-bit A/D converter can perform A/D conversion with 3-bit accuracy, while saving power consumption by reducing the number of comparators to be turned on.
