摘要:
A test solution for one or more circuits implementing a communication standard is based on a design specification received from a development organization and a communication standard. The test solution is evaluated with one or more prototype circuits and is selectively modified based on the evaluation with the prototype circuits. The test solution is then evaluated with one or more manufactured circuits and is selectively modified based on the evaluation with the manufactured circuits.
摘要:
Switching and control circuitry for selectively combining a plurality of data signals to provide a composite signal, which corresponds to one or more of the plurality of data signals, and a trigger signal for controlling capturing of selected portions of the composite signal.
摘要:
A radio frequency (RF) transceiver for providing substantially coincident communication of RF and related baseband control signals. Baseband circuitry within the transmitter and receiver sections provides for storage of related control data which can be used in real time to control processing of the transmitted or received data, respectively.
摘要:
A control circuit for causing a phase lock loop (PLL) frequency synthesizer to achieve a fast phase lock time while also providing improved loop performance during normal phase locked operation. The phase locking time of the PLL is minimized by initially configuring the PLL to operate in a fractional mode with high frequency signals presented to the inputs of the loop phase detector, thereby producing a fast phase lock time. Once the PLL has achieved phase lock, its operation mode is transitioned to either an integer mode or an open loop mode without loss of phase lock, thus causing lower frequency signals or no signals, respectively, to be presented to the inputs of the loop phase detector and thereby significantly reducing spurious signal tones.
摘要:
A method for selectively capturing selected portions of multiple data packets within a packet data signal for analysis by capturing only desired or necessary portions of the data packets and assembling them into substantially contiguous data streams prior to transferring them for analysis.
摘要:
A frequency synthesizer with a digital frequency lock loop (FLL) having a fast frequency lock time uses a frequency counter circuit in the feedback loop to count the output signal frequency and produce frequency count data. A modulation control circuit provides modulation data and a corresponding modulation control signal for modulating the FLL signal source. A microprocessor processes the frequency count data along with the modulation data to provide a frequency control signal for controlling the nominal, or center, frequency of the FLL signal source. By processing these data together, thereby accounting for the amount of modulation applied to the FLL signal source, the center frequency can be maintained more consistently notwithstanding the presence of modulation within the feedback loop signal.
摘要:
A current mirror model is provided for designing a continuous-time filter with reduced filter noise. The current mirror model includes an input branch having a voltage V.sub.in across a series circuit including a voltage source and a resistor of resistance value R.sub.m. The voltage source has a voltage value substantially equal to the value 4kTR.sub.m, where k is the Boltzmann constant and T is the temperature. An output branch is coupled to the input branch. The output branch has a first current source and a second current source. The first current source is controlled by the voltage V.sub.in and sources a current substantially equal to a transconductance G.sub.m of the output branch times the voltage V.sub.in. The output branch transconductance G.sub.m has a transconductance value substantially less than a value of an input branch conductance 1/R.sub.m. The second current source, coupled in parallel to the first current source, sources a current substantially equal to the value 4kTG.sub.m.
