Abstract:
Very small size true directional couplers have a coupling coefficient that is independent on load VSWR. The coupler uses coupled inductors with a compensation circuit including a resistor and a capacitor, or just a capacitor. Wideband operation is suitable for many portable applications such as power detection and control for GSM, DCS-PCS, CDMA/WCDMA, Bluetooth, and WLAN systems.
Abstract:
There is disclosed a test access port controller for effecting communications across a chip boundary having a test mode and a diagnostic mode of operation, wherein in the test mode of operation the test data is resultant data from a test operation having an expected and time delayed relationship, and in the diagnostic mode of operation diagnostic data is conveyed both on and off chip in the form of respective independent input and output serial bit streams simultaneously through the test access port controller.
Abstract:
An integrated circuit comprises a plurality of units that may act as initiators and targets. At least some of the units being for a first purpose such as a cable modem function and others being for a second purpose such as television data processing. The units are connected together by a bus comprising a number of nodes. One of the nodes is configurable such that requests made from initiator units on one side of the node to target units on the other side of the node are not sent to the target units. The units for the first purpose are arranged on the opposite side of the node from those of the second purpose, so that the circuit is effectively configurable into two separate logical partitions, one partition for television data processing and the other partition for cable modem functions.
