Abstract: Techniques and architecture are disclosed for a system that includes a fuze at a leading end of a projectile body and a fuze setter configured to engage the fuze and to program the same prior to launch. The system, in one example, includes a plurality of electrical contact pads on an exterior surface of a fuze radome housing and a plurality of electrical contact pins on the fuze setter. The electrical contact pads are arranged in a rotationally symmetric pattern that enables an electrical interface to be formed with the electrical contact pins, regardless of the rotational orientation of the fuze. Commutation is performed to rotate signals to the electrical contact pins instead of requiring that the fuze be physically rotated to bring the electrical contact pads into alignment with the electrical contact pins.

Abstract: A programmable transimpedance amplifiers (TIA) having T-network feedback architectures for achieving varying levels of gain based on a magnitude of an input current signal. TIA includes an operational amplifier (op-amp), a first or T-network feedback architecture that operatively connects with the op-amp at a first input terminal of the op-amp and the output terminal of the op-amp, a second feedback architecture that operatively connects with the op-amp at the first input terminal of the operational amplifier and the output terminal of the operational amplifier, an input voltage source architecture that operatively connects with a second input terminal of the operational amplifier, and at least one controller that operatively connects with each of the first feedback architecture, the second feedback architecture, and the input voltage source architecture to switch specific architectures between operative states and inoperative states to achieve a predetermined fixed output bias voltage from the operational amplifier.
