A circuit for compensating for an offset voltage in a PhotoDetector Integrated Circuit (PDIC). The circuit includes a temperature detection unit, a current transfer unit and a current adjustment unit. The temperature detection unit generates a current that varies with variation in surrounding temperature. The current transfer unit transfers the generated current. The current adjustment unit adjusts the current transferred from the current transfer unit at a predetermined ratio and outputs the adjusted current.

Circuit and method for compensating for offset voltage

Disclosed herein is a PhotoDiode Integrated Circuit (PDIC) having multiple gain states. The PDIC includes a current-voltage conversion unit, an input amplification stage circuit, a reference resistance unit, a feedback resistance unit, and a switching unit. The current-voltage conversion unit converts a current signal into a voltage signal. The input amplification stage circuit is connected to the current-voltage conversion unit to receive and amplify the voltage signal. The reference resistance unit is connected to the second input terminal of the input amplification stage circuit. The output amplification stage circuit is connected to the output terminal of the input amplification stage circuit. The feedback resistance unit is connected in parallel between the second input terminal and the output terminal of the output amplification stage circuit, and is configured to have a plurality of resistance elements. The switching unit selectively connects the plurality of resistance elements.

Photodiode integrated circuit having multiple gain states

An RF modulator includes a C/L delay compensation function of compensating for a delay of a luminance signal with respect to a chrominance signal occurring during demodulating a video signal in a TV set. The RF modulator includes a C/L delay compensation unit delaying a luminance signal by 170 nsec and combining the delayed luminance signal with a chrominance signal to output a composite image signal having a C/l delay of &#x2212;170 nsec and a frequency modulation unit modulating the video signal received from the C/L delay compensation unit into a high frequency signal of a predetermined broadcasting channel in a single module or package. The RF modulator outputs a video signal having the luminance signal delayed by 170 nsec with respect to the chrominance signal and complies with a C/L delay standard without adding any additional C/L delay compensation unit to the RF modulator.
