Abstract
An R-2R resistor circuit networkused in a filter circuit according to the present invention has a path through which each branch current flows to a next integrating capacitor and a path through which each branch current flows to a low impedance analog midpoint (ground potential) Vss. The path can be selected by digital control bit data Bn to Bfor each branch current. By this, a frequency characteristic of a filter using an integrator as a component may be changed with an accuracy of (½)(Gm)/Cf from (½)(Gm)/Cf to ((2−½)(Gm)Cf. As a result, by setting the setting bit width to 7 (n=6), a variable range of the frequency characteristic of over one hundredfold may be easily realized.
