Abstract: An integrated circuit package includes a support substrate having a front side and a back side and an optical integrated circuit die having a back side mounted to the front side of the support substrate and having a front side with an optical sensing circuit. A glass optical element die has a back side mounted to the front side of the optical integrated circuit die over the optical sensing circuit. The mounting of the glass optical element die is made by a layer of transparent adhesive which extends to the cover the optical sensing circuit and a portion of the front side of the optical integrated circuit die peripherally surrounding the optical sensing circuit. An encapsulation material body encapsulates the glass optical element die and the optical integrated circuit die.

Abstract: A method of wirelessly transmitting power includes: causing a power transmission circuit to transmit, to a master power reception circuit, a portion of power it is capable of transmitting; adjusting operation of a slave power reception unit until a first rectified voltage produced by the master power reception circuit and a second rectified voltage produced by the slave power reception unit are equal; causing the power transmission circuit to transmit additional power to the slave power reception unit, resulting in the first and second rectified voltages being unequal; and adjusting operation of the slave power reception unit until the first and second rectified voltages are again equal. A dummy load is connected to the slave power reception unit prior to causing the power transmission circuit to transmit the additional power, and is disconnected once the first and second rectified voltages are equal.

Abstract: A circuit includes a tank capacitor coupled between first and second nodes, and a sense resistor having a first terminal coupled to the first node and a second terminal coupled to a regulator input. A switching circuit has first and second inputs coupled to the first and second terminals of the sense resistor. A gain stage has first and second inputs capacitively coupled to first and second outputs of the switching circuit. An analog-to-digital converter receives the output of the gain stage, and receives first and second differential voltages. A reference voltage generator has a temperature independent current source coupled to source current to a reference resistor, the first differential reference voltage being formed across the reference resistor. The reference resistor and sense resistor are located sufficiently close to one another on a single common substrate such that they remain at substantially a same temperature.

Abstract: In an example, a method of sensing on a touchscreen including a plurality of touch sensors arranged in rows and columns on the touchscreen is described. The method includes detecting a passive touch on the touchscreen and a positon of an active stylus; determining a plurality of locations across the touchscreen corresponding to the passive touch and a positon of the active stylus, where each of the plurality of locations corresponds to a location of one of the plurality of touch sensors. The method includes transmitting a first uplink signal to a first group of the plurality of locations including a first fraction of the plurality of locations; and transmitting a second uplink signal to a second group of the plurality of locations including a second fraction of the plurality of locations, the first uplink signal being different from the second uplink signal.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a pixel array having a plurality of rows with active imaging pixels, and at least one row with test pixels. Each of the test pixels includes a test voltage generation circuit generating a test voltage, a switching circuit receiving the test voltage and an image pixel output signal and passing the test voltage as output when in a test mode, a comparison circuit receiving the output from the switching circuit and an analog to digital conversion signal and asserting a counter reset signal when the output from the switching circuit and the analog to digital conversion signal are equal in voltage, and a counter beginning counting at a beginning of each test cycle within the test mode, stopping counting upon assertion of the counter reset signal, and outputting its count upon stopping counting. The count is proportional to the test voltage when in the test mode.
