| 1989 | Invention patented by Hiroshi Asazawa on June 27th, 1989. Abstract: A D/A converter includes a first resistor group connected between first and second reference potentials, a second resistor group consisting of resistors, first terminals of which are respectively connected between the first reference potential and a first node of a first resistor and other nodes in the first resistor group, an operational amplifier, first switching elements consisting of semiconductor elements each having an input electrode and two output electrodes, one of the output electrodes being connected to each second terminal in the second resistor group, and the other output electrode being connected to the non-inverting input terminal of the amplifier, second switching elements each consisting of a semiconductor element having an input electrode and two output electrodes, one of the output electrodes being connected to each second terminal in the second resistor group, and the other output electrode being connected to the inverting input terminal of the amplifier, and a drive circuit. Resistances of the first and second resistor groups which are in downstream of the first node are set to be equal to each other. The resistances of the first and second resistor groups are determined so that a first composite resistance when viewed to the first resistor group from the nodes including the first node is equal to a second composite resistance when viewed to the second resistor group. |
