    Abstract: A method and apparatus for estimating a carrier frequency offset (CFO) in a Digital Radio Mondiale receiver is provided. Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) demodulation is performed on a received DRM signal to produce OFDM symbols. A cell characteristic in corresponding cells in the OFDM symbols is compared and a carrier index of a frequency pilot cell in the cells is identified based upon the compared cell characteristic. The CFO is estimated based on the identified carrier index of the frequency pilot cell. The ratio of values of the cell characteristic in corresponding cells may be calculated and the frequency pilot cell identified by identifying cells for which the cell characteristic is most nearly equal. The CFO may be estimated by comparing the identified carrier index with an expected carrier index of a frequency pilot cell.

    Abstract: A circuit structure for performing current amplification. The circuit structure may be standardized as a current amplifier cell such that many types of applications requiring current amplification may be created. The basic amplifier cell, which may accept voltage or current sources as an input signal, produces two identical output signals which may be used for feedback or serve as input to additional amplifier stages. This simple structure may be extended to perform current amplification with variable gain or AC or DC voltage-to-current conversion through the use of appropriately selected resistive elements.

    Abstract: A driver for a DC-to-DC converter that may utilize a flyback or buck-boost converter circuit. The driver includes a driver circuit and an interface circuit. The interface circuit has a sensor sensing an input voltage from a DC supply and generating a sensor signal to a driver selector. The driver selector compares the sensor signal to a comparison voltage to determine the type of converter circuit and then transmits a selector signal to a driver circuit where it is used to control one or more of the components of the driver circuit, such as the logic circuit which is used for driving the converter to regulate the converter output. The sensor includes a sense resistor along with a current-sense amplifier, which is adapted for connection to a high side or a low side of a power supply while still producing a substantially equivalent output voltage or sensor signal.

    Abstract: A micro-controller is connected between a hardware-based adaptive differential pulse code modulation (ADPCM) decoder and a read only memory (ROM) storing both micro-controller programming instructions and ADPCM encoded source file data. A micro-controller architecture implements time multiplexed ROM addressing driven by a two phase clock signal. In an instruction phase, a program counter supplies ROM address(es) for retrieving micro-controller programming instructions. In a decoder phase, an address counter supplies ROM address(es) for retrieving portions of the ADPCM encoded source file data. ADPCM encoded source file data extracted from the ROM in the decoder phase of the clock signal is delivered to the decoder for processing during the subsequent instruction phase of the clock signal. The selection between program counter and address counter supplied addresses for application to the ROM is made by a two phase clock signal driven multiplexer.
