Abstract

See full text

An efficient ramp generator uses a reversing switch array to couple a timing capacitor in alternating polarities between an input terminal and an output terminal of an operational amplifier to generate a periodic ramp signal without discharging the timing capacitor between voltage ramps. The reversing switch array includes at least four semiconductor switches controlled by a flip-flop circuit or a latch circuit. The flip-flop circuit or the latch circuit can be driven by an external clock signal or an internal clock signal with a variable frequency.
