Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To precisely provide a stable demodulation output for a PWM pulse whose pulse width is very small through the use of the comparison amplifier of a high gain by negatively feeding back PWM pulse demodulation output to input pulse amplitude. SOLUTION: In the signal pulse outputted from a switch circuit 21 constituted of CMOSFET, width is matched with an input pulse and amplitude becomes feedback voltage VF. The signal pulse is smoothed in a filter 22 and the comparison amplifier 23 compares it with reference voltage. Then, it is amplified and is outputted to a terminal 15 as demodulation output. The output is inputted to a differential amplifier 26 through a high pass filter by a capacitor 28 and resistances 29 and 31, is inversely amplified and output voltage VF is negatively fed back to the switch circuit 21 (low pass filter as a whole loop). When the duty ratio of the input signal pulse exceeds 50%, the output of the comparison amplifier 23 increases and feedback voltage VF reduces by increased quantity. The increase of the comparison amplifier 23 stops to a level corresponding to input pulse width.
