Abstract: A processing system includes a plurality of circuits configured to generate a plurality of error signals. The processing system further includes a plurality of error pads and a fault collection circuit configured to receive the plurality of error signals and to generate a respective combined error signal for each of the plurality of error pads. The fault collection circuit includes a combinational logic circuit configured to generate the combined error signal by selectively routing the plurality of error signals to the plurality of error pads as a function of a set of configuring bits.

Abstract: A processing system includes a processing unit; a non-volatile memory storing configuration data; and a configuration data client including a register, wherein the configuration data client is configured to receive the configuration data and store the configuration data in the register. The processing system further includes a hardware configuration circuit configured to read the configuration data from the non-volatile memory and transmit the configuration data, read from the non-volatile memory, to the configuration data client. The hardware configuration circuit may be configured to receive a command, including an access request, from the processing unit and selectively execute the access request.

Abstract: A hardware configuration circuit can sequentially read data packets from a non-volatile memory. For a first data packet, the circuit is configured to store the configuration data and the address included in the data packet in the register, select a target configuration data client circuit as a function of the address included in the first data packet, transmit a first data signal that includes the configuration data included in the first data packet to the target configuration data client circuit, receive a second data signal that includes configuration data stored in the target configuration data client circuit and the address associated with the target configuration data client circuit, and compare the configuration data and address received from the target configuration data client circuit with the configuration data and address stored in the register.

Abstract: An integrated device for driving a lighting load, such as a LED, has a first memory element, configured to store a nominal duty-cycle at a nominal supply voltage. An actual voltage acquisition element is configured to detect an actual supply voltage. A processing unit is coupled to the first memory element and to the actual voltage acquisition element and configured to calculate a voltage compensated duty-cycle. A driver unit is coupled to the processing unit and is configured to be supplied according to the voltage compensated duty-cycle.

Abstract: An antenna includes two planar coils that are mechanically disposed face to face and electrically connected in series. The antenna is mounted to a disposable consumer product (for example, a cartridge for use with an electronic cigarette). The antenna is configured to support near field communications with a reader circuit for purposes of authenticating use of the disposable consumer product.

Abstract: The power supply device comprises a supply transistor commanded by a command signal and providing electric power to a lighting module, and a driving means configured to selectively generate, depending on an instruction signal representative of the structure of said at least one lighting module, a first command signal able to command the supply transistor into an ohmic regime, a second command signal able to command the supply transistor into a pulse width modulation regime involving an alternation of ohmic regimes and blocked regimes, and a third command signal able to command the supply transistor into a saturated regime.

Abstract: A thermal control process for an electronic power device including a multi junction integrated circuit may include defining a first and at least one second groups of junctions, with each group including one first and at least one second junctions, and associating a thermal detector with each group. A first group control may be executed which detects group electric signals representative of the temperature detected by the thermal detectors, processes the group electric signals with reference to a group critical thermal event, identifies a critical group when the corresponding group electric signal detects the critical group thermal event, and generates group deactivating signals suitable for selectively deactivating the first and the at least one second junctions of the identified critical group with respect to the remaining junctions of the integrated circuit.
