Abstract: Methods and circuitry for calibrating inductive-capacitive resonant circuits are disclosed. An example of the circuitry includes an inductive-capacitive (L-C) resonant circuit operable to receive signals in response to induced electromagnetic signals transmitted on a carrier frequency. A demodulator has a signal source and is operable to demodulate signals generated by the L-C resonant circuit. Switching circuitry is operable to inject signals generated by the signal source into the L-C resonant circuit during a calibration mode. The calibration mode is for adjusting the capacitance in the L-C resonant circuit to tune the L-C resonant circuit to the carrier frequency.

Abstract: A programmable multi-band receiver includes a signal coupler, programmable signal scaler including a fixed capacitance part including a series set of switchable capacitor arrays positioned before Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protecting circuitry coupled to a variable capacitance part after the ESD protecting circuitry, reconfigurable mixer array, then a baseband polyphase filter. The variable capacitance part includes a parallel set of paths each including a capacitor and at least one switch for setting a center frequency for band selection. The reconfigurable mixer array is coupled to receive phase signals from a local oscillator (LO) circuit and includes a plurality of mixer switch elements for providing image rejection. The received signal strength is adjusted by the programmable signal scaler so that the electrostatic discharge circuit (ESD) can operate without the need of a negative supply voltage.

Abstract: One embodiment includes a power system. The system includes a power switch device that is activated to provide an output voltage to a load in response to an input voltage. The power switch device includes a control terminal and a bulk connection. The system also includes a reverse voltage control circuit configured to passively couple the input voltage to one of the control terminal and the bulk connection in response to a reverse voltage condition in which an amplitude of the input voltage becomes negative. The system further includes an output shutoff circuit configured to passively couple the output voltage to a neutral-voltage rail during the reverse voltage condition.

Abstract: A multi-amplitude modulation receiver includes a signal coupler block coupled to a mixer array block receiving a first input signal from the signal coupler block and a second input from a LO circuit that provides N overlapping phase signals. Outputs of the N mixer elements are coupled to a baseband filter (BBF) block then to a decision threshold block including decision threshold elements including a signal input and at least one comparator receiving at least one VTH value. A phase ordering and mapper block selects M out of the N phases. A digital logic and control block is coupled to control a filter gain and corner frequency of the BBF block and control the VTH value for the decision threshold block which compares a signal received to the VTH value. Outputs from the decision threshold block are coupled inputs of an M-input decision combiner which provides a single data output.
