Abstract:
An electronic device includes a connector (e.g., a USB connector), a first element configured to operate the connector as a host device connector, a second element configured to operate the connector as a peripheral device connector, and a third element configured to generate a first signal upon connection of the connector. The first signal is indicative of whether the device is to operate as a host device or a peripheral device.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a communication method by I2C bus between a emitting device and a receiving device, in which: a rising edge of a clock signal of the I2C bus, directly following a start condition of an I2C communication, is recorded; and when an interruption is generated within the receiving device, the receiving device verifies whether the rising edge was recorded.
Abstract:
An embodiment DC to DC conversion circuit comprises a DC to DC converter and a regulation circuit. The regulation circuit comprises a comparator configured to detect, during a discharge phase of the DC to DC converter, an overshoot period during which an output voltage of the DC to DC converter exceeds a target voltage, and a timer configured to measure a duration of the overshoot period.
Abstract:
A USB Type-C device supporting a bidirectional power supply, includes: a first device terminal configured to be coupled to a second USB Type-C device; a second device terminal configured to be coupled to a rechargeable DC voltage power source; and a reversible switched-mode power supply coupled to the first device terminal and the second device terminal.
Abstract:
In some embodiments, a device for determining a speed of rotation of an object includes a visualization device fastened to the object. A lighting device is configured to light the visualization device by light pulses of adjustable frequency. An adjustment device is configured to adjust a frequency of the light pulses so that the visualization device appears immobile when the object is in rotation. A processor is configured to determine the speed of rotation based on the adjusted frequency.
Abstract:
The lighting of a person via incident light radiation is controlled to address dazzling. The light radiation originates from a source of light and passes through a medium of variable and controllable opacity. The position of the source of light relative to the person can vary. A zone of the eyes of the person and a position of the zone of the eyes relative to the medium is detected. A incidence of dazzling of the zone of the eyes is detected. In response to the detection, the direction of incidence of the light radiation is determined. From this determination, from the position of the zone of the eyes, a region of said medium is identified that has a projection on the face of the person which includes said zone of the eyes. The opacity of the region of the medium is then modified in a controlled manner to preclude dazzling.
Abstract:
A module incorporated within a system-on-a-chip operating in a steady-state power supply phase is powered by supplying to the module a regulated power supply voltage obtained from a feedback control loop. The receives a main power supply voltage and a negative feedback voltage. The negative feedback voltage is generated inside the system-on-a-chip starting from an effective supply voltage of the module and from a setpoint signal corresponding to a desired regulated power supply voltage.
Abstract:
Method for managing, in a receiver, a radio service continuity based on synchronized broadcasts of identical audio contents on different frequencies, comprising, the receiver being tuned to a first frequency corresponding to a first broadcast of a first audio content, a detection in the receiver of a second audio content broadcast on a second frequency, having a level of quality above a threshold and paired with the first audio content.
Abstract:
System, method, and circuitry for generating content for a programmable computing device based on user-selected configuration information. A settings registry is generated based on the user's selections. The settings registry and the user selected configuration information is utilized to generate the content, such as code, data, parameters, settings, etc. When the content is provided to the programmable computing device, the content initializes, configures, or controls one or more software and hardware aspects of the programmable computing device, such as boot sequence configurations, internal peripheral configurations, states of the programmable computing device, transitions between states of the programmable computing device, etc., and various combinations thereof.
