Abstract
The present invention intends to provide a filter circuit in which an area occupied by the circuit can be reduced by suppressing the scale of its circuit configuration while a predetermined vicinity disturbance wave rejection ratio is maintained and a communication semiconductor device using the same, the filter circuit filtering an analog signal and including a voltage/current conversion circuit for converting the analog signal from voltage to current, and a capacitor array which executes signal processing by charging/discharging the current converted by the voltage/current conversion circuit to/from plural capacitors, the capacitor array being so constructed that the plural capacitors are divided to plural stages so that signals averaged by the capacitor on a preceding stage are accumulated in the capacitor on a next stage successively.
