    摘要: A vertical amplifier system for a multitrace oscilloscope including a first and a second variable gain amplifiers each connected to each channel of a multitrace oscilloscope. First, a first reference voltage is fed to the two variable gain amplifiers at the same time. The polarity of output of the second variable gain amplifier is inverted, and the inverted output is added to the output of the first variable gain amplifier by an adder. The added result is detected by a resistor. A CPU automatically controls a gain of at least one of the variable gain amplifiers while receiving the added result so that the added result becomes zero. Second, a second reference voltage (a ground level voltage, for example) is applied to both variable gain amplifiers, and an offset of at least one of the variable gain amplifiers is adjusted so that the added result detected by the resistor becomes zero. The input-output characteristics of both variable gain amplifiers are equalized with high accuracy.

    摘要: An arrangement for playing back data read out of data tracks on a recorded medium, in which a tracking circuit positions a beam of light on data tracks of the recorded medium. From a photodetector with a plurality of photodiodes, there are generated a data signal, a focusing-error signal, and a tracking-error signal. These signals result from the beam of light that is reflected by the recorded medium onto the photodetector. An offset-compensation voltage is applied to one input of a tracking control amplifier in the tracking circuit. The tracking error signal is generated from photovoltages of predetermined ones of photodiodes. The offset-compensation voltage is varied until one of the photovoltages is equal to the sum of the offset-compensation voltage and of another one of the photovoltages to maintain the operating point of the tracking circuit at an optimal midpoint.

    摘要: An improved instantaneous floating point (IFP) amplifier is provided having a plurality of cascaded amplifier stages, with each stage having a plurality of possible gains. The input sample signal is passed through each stage so that no stage is selectively bypassed.A bipolar, logarithmic amplifier is used for gain control. The gain control bits correspond to the industry standard gain control codes, thereby eliminating the need for bit mapping.The offset voltage control circuit is initialized during power-up by removing the IFP input signal and measuring the input referred offset at each gain setting. The measurements are stored. When a sample signal is received at the IFP amplifier input, the appropriate gain is applied to that signal along with the stored offset value corresponding to that gain.

    摘要: Disclosed is a dynamic compensation circuit for correcting the residual offset voltage encountered in an analog-to-digital conversion chain. Samples of an analog signal having an average value equal to 0 are provided to a first input of a comparator, the second input of which receives a reference signal generated through a D to A converter under control of a control logic circuit. A sample and hold circuit with the comparator causes a DC offset of the output signal level which is to be dynamically corrected by the compensating circuit of the invention. The DC offset causes the duty cycle to differ from one by an amount .DELTA.DC which will be the error curve signal of the compensation circuit. The compensating circuit reduces the .DELTA.DC to 0 by adding to the signal a DC voltage opposite to and of equal magnitude to the offset voltage level.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for DC offset compensation. An amplifier receives an input signal (AIN) and provides an amplified output signal (SOUT) and a feedback path provides DC offset compensation. The feedback path comprises at least one voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) and a counter. The VCO provides, over time, a first VCO output signal based on said amplified output signal and a second VCO output signal based on a reference signal (VREF). The counter generates first pulse counts based upon the first VCO output signal and second pulse counts based upon the second VCO output signal and provides a compensation signal based on a comparison of the first and second pulse counts. One voltage controlled oscillator may sequentially receive a signal based on said amplifier output signal and the reference signal from a multiplexer so as to sequentially produce the first and second VCO output signals.
