INTEGRATED CIRCUIT AND SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18453865 titled 'INTEGRATED CIRCUIT AND SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The integrated circuit described in the abstract includes an amplifier circuit that outputs first and second voltages in different cases based on input voltages of opposite polarities applied to a bridge circuit. The reference voltage and amplified voltages are used to generate the first and second voltages, which are then set to different levels by a reference voltage output circuit based on predetermined voltages and amplified voltages obtained from the bridge circuit.

Original Abstract Submitted

An integrated circuit includes: an amplifier circuit outputting a first voltage and a second voltage respectively in a first case and a second case, in which two input voltages of opposite polarities are applied to a pair of input terminals of a bridge circuit, the first and second voltages being based on a reference voltage and first and second amplified voltages, obtained by amplifying, by a predetermined gain, first and second output voltages outputted from a pair of output terminals of the bridge circuit; and a reference voltage output circuit setting the reference voltage to a first level and a second level respectively in the first and second cases. The first and second levels respectively correspond to a sum of, and a difference between, a predetermined voltage and another amplified voltage obtained by amplifying, by the predetermined gain, an offset voltage generated at the output terminals of the bridge circuit.
