<p>Disclosed herein is a limiter circuit for limiting an output data to a limit value when an input data exceeds in value the limit value. The limiter circuit includes an encoder responding to the input data and producing a first data indicative of the number of significant digits of the value of the input data, a comparator comparing the first data with a second data indicative of the number of significant digits of the limit value, and a decoder responding to the second data and producing a third data indicative of the limit value. One of the input data and the third data is selected and outputted as the output data through a selector responding to a comparison output of the comparator.</p> |
