    Abstract: A clocked comparator circuit comprises an input stage and a sample-and-hold circuit and an amplifier-latch circuit coupled to the output of the input stage. The sample-and-hold circuit provides an accurate offset-voltage compensation and the amplifier-latch circuit provides a high operating speed by means of a switchable current source (S6, T11). Switches are provided so that the amplifier-latch circuit constitutes a differential load having a high positive impedance during a first state of a clock signal, a low positive impedance during a next state of the clock signal, and a negative impedance during a following state of the clock signal.

    Abstract: Auto-zeroing clocking signals, a first auto-zeroing clocking signal of comparatively-low frequency and duty cycle and a second auto-zeroing clocking signal of the same comparatively-low frequency but complementary and comparatively-high duty cycle, and a sampling clocking signal of comparatively-high frequency respectively initiate auto-zeroing of a circuit element subject to output offset error and data sampling of an A.C. input signal to a latch. The sampling of the A.C. input signal to the latch occurs at the comparatively-high frequency of the clocking signal during the "on" time of the comparatively-high duty cycle second auto-zeroing clocking signal of comparatively-low frequency enabling thereby to provide higher speed sampling than heretofore possible. The auto-zeroing of the circuit element subject to input offset error occurs during the "on" time of the comparatively-low duty cycle first auto-zeroing clocking signal of comparatively-low frequency enabling thereby to provide lower power sampling than heretofore possible. Typically, the circuit element is either an analog comparator or an operational amplifier, and the sampling circuit of the invention has exemplary utility in analog-to-digital (A/D) conversion.

    Abstract: A novel bridge type optoelectronic (OE) sample and hold circuit based upon current steering demonstrates a clear superiority in performance with respect to a direct OE sample and hold circuit. The bridge type OE sample and hold circuit permits a high-speed signal to be sampled with high accuracy to offer high charging capability, commanding signal isolation, reduced time jitter and reduced holding charge leakage which are distinct advantages over conventional electronic sample and hold circuits.

    Abstract: An input signal is sampled by alternately coupling the input signal and a reference level to a sample storage element, whereby the magnitude of the signal stored by the storage element immediately following application of the input signal to the storage element is a function of the input signal magnitude and the magnitude of the signal stored by the storage element immediately preceding coupling of the input signal to the storage element is a function of the reference level.

    Abstract: Cascading analog record/playback devices allowing the recording and the playback duration of individual devices to be extended by connecting together multiple devices of the same type. Each such device contains both writing and reading circuits as well as memory circuits. The memory is embedded inside the device and does not have direct access to the outside of the device. All control functions relating to the selection of particular devices is done by the devices themselves without external intervention or assistance. A single input circuit and a single output circuit is used by all devices. In the case of a voice record and playback system, all devices use a single microphone and single loudspeaker.

    Abstract: A holding circuit used in a pedestal level clamp circuit of a color television receiver. By using base current of a transistor as charging current of a capacitor, a large time constant is obtained. Also, in case the voltage lower than the reference voltage is held, base current of the transistor is used as discharging current to discharge slowly. Furthermore, though a charging transistor of the capacitor must be a PNP type and a discharging transistor must be an NPN type, it is designed not to be influenced by the difference in current amplification factors of the two types.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a sample-and-hold unit more especially designed to work at microwave frequencies (>1 GHz). In order to increase the sampling frequency, the disclosed circuit has at least two identical parallel channels. Each channel has a first follower switch (9) a capacitor (11) and a second holding switch (15). The channels are controlled by a single clock, the complementary or phase-shifted signals (H, H) of which address the samples sequentially towards the output (8). The disclosed device can be applied to the processing of analog signals.
