The invention provides a method for mixing signals with an analog-to-digital converter. The analog-to-digital converter receives a plurality of analog signals. First, the plurality of analog signals are respectively converted to a plurality of first datastreams with a plurality of first delta-sigma modulators. The plurality of first datastreams are then mixed to generate at least one second datastream. The at least one second datastream is then converted to at least one third datastream with at least one second delta-sigma modulator. The at least one second delta-sigma modulator and the plurality of first delta-sigma modulators are triggered by the same clock signal.

A flyback converter system and feedback controlling apparatus and method of operating the same are disclosed. The feedback controlling apparatus for the flyback converter system includes a primary feedback loop unit for generating a primary feedback signal, and a secondary feedback loop unit for generating a secondary feedback signal, a loop selector. In light-load conditions, the loop selector supplies the primary feedback signal to a PWM controller for feedback control, and the secondary feedback loop unit is disabled by a power monitor to save electrical energy.

Invention resides in a switching amplifier having a quaternary input control signal that provides quaternary levels (1, 0H, −1, and 0L) which is coupled to an H-bridge amplifier to provide error cancellation in switching amplifier output signal. The quaternary control signal alternates from a zero state at a high level (“0H”) to a zero state at a low level (“0L”) between each non-zero state (+1 or −1). In a preferred embodiment, a three-level sigma-delta modulator is provided for greater operational efficiency for ease of detecting zero states and minimizing power. The three-level sigma-delta modulator receives and converts an amplifier input signal into a ternary output signal that is then coupled to a ternary-to-quaternary converter to generate the quaternary control signal to provide as input to the H-bridge.

In a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) current source including a current mirror, an output transistor biased by a reference voltage and a steering transistor, a structure and a method are provided to implement the DAC current source without current spikes in the output current. Current spikes in the output current are avoided by including a transistor acting as a low-pass filter between the steering transistor and the output transistor. In one embodiment, the DAC current source circuit is implemented by PMOS transistors.

A dual sense amplifier structure and a method are provided in a RAMDAC, to allow the video path to be probed digitally during testing. Each of the two sets of sense amplifiers in the dual sense amplifier structure can be individually enabled to provide the same output data to both a color value register accessible over a data port and the digital-to-analog converters for interface with an analog display. In one embodiment, the sense amplifiers which provide color values to a data port interfaced with the CPU are implemented by simpler circuits than the sense amplifiers which used to provide the color values to the DACs.

A flyback converter with primary side and secondary side feedback control includes a transformer, a secondary-side feedback unit and a feedback control unit. The secondary-side feedback unit is electrically connected to a secondary winding of the transformer and comprises an isolated signal transceiver device and an error amplifier. The feedback control unit is electrically connected to an auxiliary winding of the transformer and operatively connected to the isolated signal transceiver device. When the flyback converter is operated in heavy load conditions, the feedback control unit receives a secondary feedback control signal sent from the isolated signal transceiver device for feedback control. When the flyback converter is operated in light load conditions, the feedback control unit receives a primary feedback control signal sensed by the auxiliary winding for feedback control.

A charge-pump phase-locked loop (CP-PLL) circuit with charge calibration. The CP-PLL circuit keeps the phase of an output clock signal constant in a “locked” condition, and includes a charge-pump circuit and a calibration circuit. The charge-pump circuit provides a charge-pump output current. The charge-pump circuit also includes a transistor configured to fine tune the charge-pump output current based on a calibrate voltage signal to eliminate a net charge delivered from the charge-pump output current. The calibration circuit senses the net charge and generates the calibrate voltage signal having a value in proportion to an amount of the net charge. Under control of the calibrate voltage signal, the charge-pump circuit cooperating with the transistor regulates the net charge to become exactly zero, thereby maintaining the phase of the output clock signal locked onto the phase of the reference clock signal.

A charge-pump phase-locked loop (PLL) circuit with charge calibration. The PLL keeps the phase of an output clock signal constant in a “locked” condition, and includes a first charge pump, a second charge pump and a charge sensing circuit. The first and the second charge pumps provide a first current and a second current, respectively. According to a first and second net charge delivered from the first and the second currents separately, the charge sensing circuit provides a calibrate voltage signal as feedback to the first charge pump and the second charge pump. Under control of the calibrate voltage signal, the first and the second charge pumps regulate the first net charge and the second net charge to become exactly zero thereby maintaining the phase of the output clock signal locked onto the phase of a reference clock signal.

A conversion system and method is disclosed for converting between digital and analog data signals. The conversion system comprises a signal input line for each digital data signal, a reconstructor-resampler unit for each digital data signal, a combiner, a modulator, a digital-to-analog converter, and a signal output line. Each signal line input couples to the respective reconstructor-resampler unit for the digital data signal. Each reconstructor-resampler unit then couples to a combiner which couples to a modulator. The modulator couples to the digital-to-analog converter that couples to the signal output line from which an analog output signal is produced. The reconstructor-resampler comprises a sampling member coupled to the signal line input and a polynomial interpolator member coupled to the sampling member and the modulator. Also, the modulator operates at a predetermined, or fixed, frequency regardless of the sampling frequency of the digital data signal. The steps of the conversion method include inputting a digital data signal having a sampling frequency, reconstructing and resampling the digital data signal to generate a resampled data signal, performing noise-shaping on the resampled data signal to generate a x-bit data signal from a modulator operating at a predetermined frequency regardless of the sampling frequency of any of the digital data signals, and converting the x-bit data signal to an analog data signal. In addition, an analog-to-digital conversion system and method is disclosed that comprises a signal line input, a decimator, a reconstructor-resampler a signal output line, and a modulator operating at a predetermined frequency to convert an analog data signal to a digital data signal.
