Abstract: A stepdown DC-DC converter is adapted to provide a power supply voltage necessary to control the operation of an LED. The stepdown DC-DC converter includes: a reference voltage supplier for providing a reference voltage; a feedback unit for feeding back the power supply voltage on an output line; an operational amplifier for operationally amplifying the reference voltage and the fed-back power supply voltage; a switch unit for switching on/off a DC voltage on an input line toward the output line; and a charging and discharging circuit for selectively performing a charging operation of the switched voltage from the switch unit and a discharging operation of its charged voltage according to the switching operation of the switch unit to provide the power supply voltage to the output line.

Abstract: A temperature-compensated high precision current source provides a constant current regardless of temperature change, thereby ensuring the stability of electric circuits.

Abstract: A double sampling analog low pass filter for converting differential inputs of first and second analog signals into a single-ended output signal. The double sampling analog low pass filter having first and second input terminals and a final output terminal includes a first charging/discharging means including at lest one charge storing means, and for charging and/or discharging the charge storing means in response to at least one control signal on receiving a first analog input signal from the first input terminal and a second charging/discharging means including at least one charge storing means, and for charging and/or discharging the charge storing means in response to at least one control signal on receiving a second analog input signal from the second input terminal. A differential input single-ended output operational amplifier amplifies the difference between outputs from the first and second charging/discharging means.

Abstract: Disclosed is a delta-sigma modulator (or noise shaper) having resolution over 18 bits. The delta-sigma modulator may increase the linearity and decrease its size, by employing only one feedback loop path and applying a coefficient of less than 1 to the integrators. Also, the delta-sigma modulator according to the present invention may be used for the analogue-to-digital convertor with the reduction of the effective value of capacitor. In the case where the decimal values are corrected to digital values, it is possible to design the digital noise shaper which is used in the digital-to-analogue convertor.

Abstract: In a D/A converter employed in audio systems and various communicating equipment, particularly for using a digital 1-bit data stream as an input and an analog signal as an output, a switched capacitor digital-analog converter having a decreased harmonic distortion utilizes a charge subtraction method in a low-pass filter instead of employing a bypass filter to prevent an operational amplifier from deviating from a linear range due to a switching noise. The bypass capacitor heretofore used in the D/A converter is not employed to shrink the chip designing area.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a voltage gain amplifier for converting a single analog input to a differential output and controlling a voltage gain, comprising a single input charging/discharging part, a differential output operational amplifier, a first and second input voltage transferring part, a first and second voltage holding part and a frequency compensating part, and therefore, making it possible to generate a differential input signal, which is used as an input to an ADC(Analog-to-Digital Converter) of an audio CODEC(Coder/Decoder), by using a fully-differential output operational amplifier whose output is transmitted as a differential output. Also, the present invention gives an advantage of making the chip size smaller than the prior art does, resulting from the fact that resistors are replaced by capacitors and switches when integrated into a chip.
