    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to a surface grating in a photodetector device. In an example, a semiconductor device structure includes a photodetector device. The photodetector device includes one or more photodiodes disposed in or over a semiconductor substrate, and includes a surface grating disposed at a respective surface of each photodiode of the one or more photodiodes. The surface grating has one or more periodicities. Each periodicity of the one or more periodicities has a period that is along a direction parallel to a first lateral direction across the semiconductor substrate and that is equal to or less than half of a dimension of at least one photodiode of the one or more photodiodes along a direction parallel to the first lateral direction. The one or more periodicities includes multiple different pitches.

    Abstract: A first branch group circuit includes a first branch circuit receiving a first RF input signal and first control information; and a second branch circuit receiving the first input signal and second control information. Each of the first and second branch circuits includes a power amplifier. The second control information enables the second branch circuit to be switched on or off while the first branch circuit remains on. A second branch group circuit includes: a third branch circuit receiving a second RF input signal and third control information; and a fourth branch circuit receiving the second input signal and fourth control information. Each of the third and fourth branch circuits includes a power amplifier. The fourth control information enables the fourth branch circuit to be switched on or off while the third branch circuit remains on. A combiner combines output signals of the power amplifiers to produce an output signal.

    Abstract: Noise-shaped frequency hopping power converters are disclosed. An example noise-shaped frequency hopping power converter comprises a shaped number generator having a first output to output a noise-shaped selection signal and a power converter having a first input to receive an input voltage signal, a second input to receive a switching signal that is based on the noise-shaped selection signal, and a second output to output an output voltage signal based on the switching signal.
