PURPOSE: To minimize the influence of the converting error of an A/D conversion and to prevent the deterioration of S/N providing a means to attenuate to an A/D converted digital signal to the value in which the digital signal processing means is not overflown at the input side of a digital signal processing means. CONSTITUTION: The analog signal of a processing object is converted to a digital signal with an A/D converter 10. The digital signal is inputted through a signal line 11 equivalent to a digital signal supplying means to an attenuator 18 equivalent to a digital signal attenuating means and attenuated in a prescribed quantity digital way. After a prescribed digital signal processing is executed by a digital signal processing part 12 equivalent to the digital signal processing means, the attenuated digital signal is converted to an analog signal by a D/A converter 14 equivalent to a D/A converting means. The analog signal is outputted through an amplifier 19 equivalent to an analog amplifying means. Thus, the overflowing is prevented and the clip of an output waveform can be prevented.

PURPOSE:To reduce the chip area of a parallel A/D converter by obtaining the low-order digit bits by obtaining a local analog signal which corresponds to the high-order digits by 2<n> units of switches, and then finding a difference between a sampled value and the local analog signal. CONSTITUTION:A group of reference voltages and an analog signal are compared mutually by comparators 141-147. Detecting circuits 152-157 find two comparators which output a ''0'' and a ''1''. A detecting circuit 151 detects all the comparators 141-147 outputting ''1''s, and a detector 158 detects all the comparators 141-147 outputting ''0''s. Their detection signals are converted by an encoder 16 into digital signals, which are outputted to output terminals 17. According to those outputs, switches 121-128 operate to lead a prescribed voltage to an output terminal 11. | ||||||

PURPOSE:To perform optimum control for the sampling rate according to the slope of signals, by adding a slope detector. CONSTITUTION:An analog input signal applied to an input terminal 51 is inputted to a sampling circuit 52 and a slope detector 53. The sampling circuit 52 samples input signals every time when clock pulses are given from a clock oscillator 54 and outputs the sampled series to an output terminal 55. A slope detector 53 detects the slope of an input signal to the circuit 52 and outputs a signal having the level corresponding to the slope, and the output is given to the clock oscillator 54 as a control signal. The clock oscillator 54 consists of a VCO, and the oscillated frequency is controlled with the output of the slope detector 53 so that the interval of clock pulses applied to the circuit 52 is smaller with greater slope of the input signal. | ||||||

The present invention relates to a method for amplifying an echo signal, wherein an analogue echo signal suitable for vehicle environment detection is amplified by means of an amplification based on the runtime of the echo signal, wherein the analogue echo signal is amplified by means of an amplifier having a plurality of outputs, each with different amplification and a downstream A/D converter with a time-variable reference voltage. At the same time, switching occurs between the different outputs of the amplifier at predefined switchover times and the reference voltage of the A/D converter varies time-wise between the switching times in such a manner that at the output of the A/D converter the echo signal is present with a runtime-dependent overall amplification, which has a predefined profile. | ||||||

The invention relates to multi-level parallel super-high-speed ADC and DAC using logarithmic companding law. With the help of a zero-voltage-drop voltage tracker switch, a zero-loss threshold switch assembly is provided. The quantized voltage of the A/D and D/A conversion can be obtained directly in the voltage-dividing resistor, thereby simplifying the conversion process and reducing conversion error. Thus, multi-level/multi-position parallel super-high-speed A/D and D/A conversion using logarithmic companding law can be achieved at a high conversion rate and a low error rate. | ||||||

Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) systems and methods that reduce latency to improve performance. In certain embodiments the systems sample a noise signal using a sample period to create a stream of digital signal data that is representative of the noise signal. A data transport layer carries the digital signal data to a signal processor. The transport layer temporally organizes the digital signal data to place the digital signal data within an initial phase of a sample period. The remaining phase of the sample period is set to a duration that allows the signal processor to process the digital signal data carried in the initial phase and to output the processed data during the same sample period. In this way, the processing of data occurs within one sample period and the latency is reduced and predictable. | ||||||

A signal processing unit for time of flight measurement includes an oscillation module, a transmission module, a detection module, a multiplier, an analog-to-digital-converter and a processing module. The oscillation module provides m reference phases. The transmission module generates a set of light impulses based on a selection phase selected out of the m reference phases. The detection module receives a set of reflections of the set of light impulses and to generate a detector signal based on the set of reflections. The multiplier obtains a result of a multiplication of the detector signal by a comparison phase. The analog-to-digital-converter converts the result of the multiplier into a digital signal. The processing module determines the comparison phase or the selection phase and calculates an approximate phase difference between the set of generated light impulses and the set of received reflections based on the digital signal. | ||||||
