摘要： Electronic circuitry comprising a data processing circuit for processing a digital signal (DS), such as a digital to analog converter (DAC), and a current compensation circuit (CMP). Both the digital to analog converter (DAC) and the current compensation circuit (CMP) are powered by a single power supply (U1). The current taken from the power supply (U1) by the digital to analog converter (DAC) is normally dependent on the digital input signal (DS). This would lead to distortion since the loss-resistances (R11, R12) which are always present in series with the power supply (U1) then feed a data-dependent supply voltage (U2) to the digital to analog converter (DAC). This problem is overcome by the addition of the current compensation circuit (CMP) which is coupled for receiving the digital signal (DS). The current compensation circuit (CMP) is arranged in such a way that the sum of the data-dependent current drawn by the digital to analog converter (DAC) and the data-dependent current drawn by the compensation circuit (CMP) is substantially independent of the data.

摘要： A digital to analog converter (DAC) for converting a digital signal (DS) having a maximum voltage range which corresponds to a first supply voltage (UL) into an analog signal (Uout) having a maximum voltage range which corresponds to a second supply voltage (UH). The first supply voltage (UL) is offered between a first supply terminal (VSS) and a second supply terminal (VDDL). The second supply voltage (UH) is offered between the first supply terminal (VSS) and a third supply terminal (VDDH). The digital to analog converter (DAC) comprises conversion resistors (RCNV0-RCNVn) and coupling means (CPL) for coupling a number of said conversion resistors (RCNV2-RCNVn) in between the first supply terminal (VSS) and an output terminal (OUT), and for coupling the remainder of said conversion resistors (RCNV0-RCNV1) in between the third supply terminal (VDDH) and the output terminal (OUT). The value of said number depends on the data content of the digital signal (DS). Digital to analog converters are generally implemented in ICs. For modern ICs there is a trend toward ever decreasing supply voltages. Often circuits implemented in new IC processes have to be able to interface with ICs processed in less modern processes which are generally operated on higher supply voltages. In the modern process, therefore, circuits designed in modern ICs have to cope with voltages which are above the maximum specification for their transistors or other components. The DA-converter (DAC) mentioned above fulfils this requirement by the fact that material, such as polycrystalline silicon, is used for the conversion resistors (RCNV2-RCNVn), which material can cope with relatively high voltages, and furthermore by the fact that only the coupling means (CPL) have to be designed to cope with relatively high voltages.

摘要： A transceiver front-end provides an interface between a transmission medium and transmitter, and between a transmission medium and receiver. The transceiver front-end includes a hybrid circuit, a high-pass filter, and a gain stage, that permits the reduction or the complete elimination of buffer amplifiers. Buffer amplifiers can be eliminated because the hybrid circuit and/or the high-pass filter are adapted so that they can be directly connected to each other, without a loss in circuit performance. Furthermore, the high-pass filter and/or the gain stage are also adapted so they can be directly connected. As such, the transceiver front-end can be constructed using all passive components, reducing or eliminating excess heat generation.

摘要： A unit cell for a digital to analog conversion circuit that includes a current source (CS); a first data switch (S1) coupled to the current source (CS); a second data switch (S2) coupled to the current source (CS); a first phase switch (Phi1) coupled between the current source (CS) and the first data switch (S1); a second phase switch (Phi2) coupled between the current source (CS) and the second data switch (S2); a controller arranged to switch between the first (Phi1) and second (Phi2) phase switches in a Break Before Make alternating sequence, and to switch the first (S1) and second (S2) data switches in a Make Before Break sequence. A digital to analog convener circuit constructed using unit cells according to the invention is more area and power efficient than the previously known circuit because it uses only one current source, yet it succeeds in preventing short-circuit error currents between the outputs and solves the problems caused by pulse asymmetry and the influence of switch-charge injection, and provides more linear and better quality output signals.
