| 20110291870 | ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERTING CIRCUIT - The present invention relates to an analog-to-digital converting circuit, which comprises an integrating circuit, a reference signal generating circuit, a comparator, and a first counting circuit. The integrating circuit integrates an input signal for producing an integration signal. The reference signal generating circuit produces a plurality of reference signals. The comparator receives the integration signal and the plurality of reference signals, and compares the integration signal to the plurality of reference signals sequentially for producing a plurality of comparison signals. The first counting circuit receives the plurality of comparison signals produced by the comparator, and starts to count the plurality of comparison signals for producing a reset signal and resetting the integrating circuit. Because the integrating circuit is not reset once until the comparator produces the plurality of comparison signals, the number of times of resetting the integrating circuit can be reduced, and hence reducing the integral nonlinearity effect. Accordingly, the accuracy of the analog-to-digital converting circuit is enhanced. | 12-01-2011 |

The ambient light sensing module further comprises at least a fuse for determining a processing parameter. A signal processing unit processes the light-sensing signal according to the processing parameter for outputting a converting signal. The comparing unit compares the converting signal with the sawtooth signal for producing the PWM signal. An adjusting unit produces an adjusting signal according to the PWM signal and the light intensity or according to the converting signal and the light intensity for controlling a trimming unit to trim the fuse and thus modifying the processing parameter. | 12-01-2011 |

| 20110084711 | CAPACITANCE SENSING CIRCUIT WITH ANTI-ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE CAPABILITY - The present invention relates to a capacitance sensing circuit with anti-EMI capability. A filter is coupled to a capacitor under test; receives a plurality of reference signals; and produces a first filter signal and a second filter signal. A difference circuit receives the first and second filter signals; eliminates the common-mode noise in the first and second filter signals; and produces a difference signal. The amplitude of the difference signal is related to the capacitance value of the capacitor under test. Thereby, the purpose of sensing capacitance can be achieved. In addition, by eliminating common-mode noise using the difference circuit, the anti-EMI capability can be achieved. Because the difference circuit can adjust the dynamic range of the output of the filter, the capacitance sensing circuit with anti-EMI capability can achieve capacitance sensing in few clock cycles. | 04-14-2011 |
