Abstract: System, method, and circuitry for simulating a memory architecture to generate a bin image of a file tree for a memory embedded on a programmable computing device. A memory configuration of the memory and a file tree identifying a file structure to be used in the memory are obtained. A bin image of a file system for the memory is generated based on the memory configuration and the file tree using a memory simulator and a file-management-system manager. The bin image is provided to the programmable computing device for storage in the memory.

Abstract: A clock generator circuit includes an oscillator circuit coupled to a bias circuit. The bias circuit includes a current mirror, third and fourth transistors, and a cascode transistor. The current mirror includes a reference transistor and a set of copy transistors that are programmable. The third transistor has a source connected to a cold spot, a drain and a gate connected to this drain. The fourth transistor has a source connected to the drain of the third transistor, a drain, and a gate connected to that drain. The cascode transistor has a source connected to a drain of at least one of the copy transistors, a drain, and a gate connected to the gate of the fourth transistor. The gates of the fourth transistor and the cascode transistor are thicker than the gates of the reference transistor, each copy transistor, and the third transistor.

Abstract: A cell includes a Z-PET-type structure that is formed with two front gates extending over an intermediate region between an anode region and a cathode region. The individual front gates of the two front gates are spaced apart by a distance that is shorter than 40% of a width of each individual front gate.

Abstract: In an embodiment an apparatus includes a scanning photographic sensor configured to acquire an image, according to an integration time of the sensor, of a scene illuminated with periodically emitted light pulses by a source, so that the image has a regular succession of bands with different luminosities when the integration time of the sensor is different from a period of the light pulses, a processor configured to generate a signature vector representative of the regular succession of bands with different luminosities being present in the image acquired by the photographic sensor, wherein the signature vector is independent of a reflectance of an objects of the scene and of a level of light in the scene, determine a frequency of the bands in the image on basis of the generated signature vector and determine the period of the pulses of the source on basis of the determined frequency of the bands in the image, and a controller configured to adjust the integration time of the photographic sensor so that the integration time is a multiple of the determined period of the light pulses of the source.

Abstract: System, method, and circuitry for generating a linker model for use by a toolchain associated with a programmable computing device. One or more regions in the memory resources available to the programmable computing devices is defined for used by an application executing on the programmable computing device. One or more sections is defined for those regions for use by the application. Resource boundaries are generated for the application based on the defined regions and the defined sections. A user is enabled to modify the defined regions or the defined sections or the generated resource boundaries. A linker model is then generated based on the available memory resources, the defined regions, the defined sections, and the generated resource boundaries. This linker model is then utilized to generate a linker script for the programmable computing device based the linker syntax compatible with a toolchain linker for the programmable computing device.

Abstract: A reader is adapted to wirelessly exchanging information with a wireless apparatus. The reader includes a signal generator configured to generate a modulation signal. An emitter/receptor stage is configured to be driven by the modulation signal. A switched-mode power supply is configured to power the emitter/receptor stage. The switched-mode power supply includes a power switch controlled in function of the modulation signal.

Abstract: In one embodiment, an object can communicate contactlessly with a reader using active load modulation. The method includes detecting a sensing magnetic field emitted by the reader, initializing a phase-locked loop of the object, detecting a stopping of the sensing magnetic field emitted by the reader before initializing the phase-locked loop of the object is complete, calibrating an oscillator of the phase-locked loop on the basis of an internal clock of the object, detecting a new sensing magnetic field of the reader after calibrating the oscillator, and implementing the phase-locked loop to adjust the phase of the oscillator after detecting a new sensing magnetic field.
