There is disclosed a variable-gain amplifier circuit that operates on a low voltage, exhibits low distortion, provides a wide range of variation, and is suitable for use in a low-power-consumption wireless communication system. The variable-gain amplifier circuit is configured so that a variable-load circuit, which includes three reactance function elements and provides a wide range of impedance variation, is connected to a conductor circuit whose output terminal generates a positive-phase output current proportional to conductance with respect to an input voltage.

Semiconductor devices are provided with high performance high-frequency circuits in which interference caused by inductors is reduced. In a semiconductor device including a modulator circuit to modulate a carrier wave by a base band signal to output an RF signal and a demodulator circuit to demodulate the RF signal by use of the carrier wave to gain the base band signal and a local oscillator to generate the carrier wave, inductors respectively having a closed loop wire are adopted. Interference caused by mutual inductance is reduced by the closed loop wire. For example, where inductors are adopted in the modulator circuit, a closed loop wire is disposed around the outer periphery of the inductors.

The object of the invention is to provide a frequency generator which is composed of an oscillator and a frequency doubler and in which difference in amplitude between differential outputs of the frequency doubler can be equalized at low power consumption without adjustment. To achieve the object, the amplitude of differential outputs of the frequency doubler is detected and the delay time of a variable delay circuit is controlled. Owing to this configuration, in case a frequency of the oscillator varies or in case delay time by the delay circuit used in the frequency doubler varies by process variation and others even if the frequency is fixed, the amplitude of the differential outputs of the frequency doubler can be also equalized in the frequency generator.

An optical receiver generates a voltage signal having a predetermined swing from a current signal, and feeds the voltage signal to a decision circuit. An optical receiving element receives the input optical signal, converts the optical signal to a current signal, and provides the current signal to a preamplifier, which converts the input current signal into a voltage signal. The voltage signal is input to an amplifier having a limiting function, which linearly amplifies the voltage signal when the swing of the voltage signal is smaller than a predetermined value, and limitedly amplifies the voltage signal when the voltage signal is greater than the predetermined value. An automatic-gain-control amplifier receives the output from the amplifier with the limiting function, and amplifies the input voltage signal to a voltage signal having a constant swing. The decision circuit receives the output of the automatic-gain-control amplifier and decides the binary nature of the voltage, and thus of the input optical signal.

A semiconductor memory device has a primary memory cell array, a primary decoder having a first circuit producing an intermediate signal from an address signal and a second circuit producing a first cell selection signal from the intermediate signal for selectively driving a word line and a bit line, an auxiliary memory cell array having a plurality of memory cells, each being used for a defective memory cell found in the primary memory cell array, an auxiliary decoder connected to the primary decoder to receive the intermediate signal, a non-volatile memory for storing first information indicating that the primary memory cell array contains a defective memory cell from which a cell defect signal is produced and for storing second information indicating an address of the defective memory cell from which a defective cell address signal is produced, and a control circuit responsive to the cell defect signal and the defective cell address signal for producing a first control signal to be supplied to the second circuit and a second control signal to be supplied to the auxiliary decoder. The primary decoder is prohibited by the first control signal from accessing a defective memory cell having an address represented by the defective cell address signal. The auxiliary decoder produces a second cell selection signal from the intermediate signal under control of the second control signal and of the cell defect signal for selectively accessing a memory cell in the auxiliary memory cell array.

This invention relates to a jack with recessed contacts, wherein a contact collection plate is formed by punching a metal plate. The contact collection plate includes a plurality of contacts which are arranged in the lateral direction of the contact collection plate so that they do not overlap one another when the contact collection plate is viewed in development. The jack also has a contact holding member of electrical insulating material within which one end of each contact is recessed. The plurality of contacts are formed by bending each part which is to become a contact relative to the recessed end.
