    Abstract: BPF having a band width of |reference signal fREF-mixer output signal fMIX OUT| is connected to a phase comparator. When an output signal corresponding to the passage of this band width has been obtained, a changeover switch is turned OFF. Upon detection such that the PLL circuit is unlockable, an output signal is obtained from an offset differential pair circuit, the changeover switch is turned ON, and the time constant of LPF is reduced to shorten the lock-up time, and the voltage applied to VCO is made larger than the usual voltage. By virtue of this construction, a PLL circuit of an analog system can be realized which can shorten the lock-up time and, in addition, can reduce noise and spurious harmonics.

    Abstract: A harmonic rejection mixer converts a frequency of a radio frequency signal by using a first to a third local signals (LOs) whose phases are different from each other, and the harmonic rejection mixer includes a phase difference detection circuit for detecting a phase difference between the first LO and the second LO, a phase difference detection circuit for detecting a phase difference between the first LO and the third LO, a phase adjustment circuit for adjusting the phase of the second LO so that the phase difference detected by the phase difference detection circuit becomes a first phase difference, and a phase adjustment circuit for adjusting the phase of the third LO so that the phase difference detected by the phase difference detection circuit becomes a second phase difference. It is thereby possible to achieve high precision harmonic rejection characteristics.

    Abstract: In a wireless communications system, it is important to realize a limiter operation by which a differential amplifier for amplifying a local signal may stably supply an output signal having a constant amplitude. However, when a signal handled by the system has a high frequency, a gain of the differential amplifier is reduced and the limiter operation may not be performed appropriately. The differential amplifier is configured employing a double cascode connection to enhance an output impedance, an upper transistor of the double cascode connection realizes enhancement in gain and frequency characteristics based on a positive feedback signal, and a lower transistor of the double cascode connection controls an operating point and suppresses an allowable output voltage range by operating in a linear region and based on a negative feedback signal to facilitate the limiter operation.
