Abstract: A method of recovering gain in a bipolar transistor includes: providing a bipolar transistor including an emitter, a collector, and a base disposed between junctions at the emitter and the collector; reverse biasing the junction disposed between the emitter and the base with an operational voltage and for an operational time period, so that a current gain β of the transistor is degraded; idling the transistor, and generating a repair current Ibr into the base, while forward biasing the junction disposed between the emitter and the base with a first repair voltage (VEBR), and while at least partly simultaneously reverse biasing the junction disposed between the collector and the base with a second repair voltage (VCBR), for a repair time period (TR), so that the gain is at least partly recovered.

Abstract: An infrared communication device with an adaptive configuration controller for programming system parameter settings with command codes. The adaptive configuration controller comprises a number of shift registers and control circuits. The registers store command codes for configuring system parameters including bandwidth, sensitivity and LED drive current. The codes are obtained from an external source. The capability to program the system parameter settings allows the communication device to be adapted or reconfigured for optimal operation in response to changes in the environment without the need for removing or adding external components.

Abstract: An input buffer for an optical receiver or transceiver which provides symmetrical hysteresis and zero static current, comprises two field effect transistors (FETs) which form the basic buffer logic circuit, two FETs which respectively provide offset voltages to the buffer logic FETs, and two FETs which provide positive feedback. In the preferred embodiment the input buffer provides multiple-channels, each channel comprising a component inverter designed to provide zero static current and symmetrical hysteresis for a different input signal mode.

Abstract: This invention provides a solution to the problem of determining how long the peak value detected for the first pulse be kept, and when should it be updated. In infrared communication, the communication distance may vary over time during the transmission. For instance in a mobile infrared telephone the users generally are moving with respect to each other. The signal amplitude changes within a very large range over time and the receiver expected to operate in this environment must also handle a large number of different communication protocols. It uses the instant signal as a basis for adjusting the threshold. The present invention is capable of accepting a wide input dynamic range of signals up to and beyond five orders of magnitude (50 dB). This is accomplished while overcoming the difficulties presented by many communications protocols, by providing a technique in which the output pulse width of an amplified photo detector input is not strongly dependent upon the input signal amplitude.
