Abstract:
A switching circuit includes a source follower current mirror having an input, an output, a first source terminal, a bias terminal, and a second source terminal; a current source coupled to the input of the current mirror; an output terminal coupled to the output of the current mirror; a first bias transistor coupled to the first source terminal; a second bias transistor coupled to bias terminal of the current mirror; and a driver transistor coupled to the second source terminal. An input transistor in the current mirror is sized such that the input voltage is substantially independent of the supply voltage.
Abstract:
A simulator simulates routing system protocols to build routing tables corresponding to a modeled network, and a comparator compares the routing tables in the actual network to these simulator-created routing tables. Because the modeled system represents a fault-free version of the actual system, and assuming that the modeled routing system protocols are representative of the algorithms used in the actual routers, these simulator-produced routing tables can represent steady-state routing tables that should be present in the routers of the actual network at steady state. By querying each router in the actual network for its routing table and comparing each routing table to the corresponding simulator-produced routing table, any differences from the steady state can be identified.
Abstract:
In a method for recovery of a clock from a received digital data stream and an apparatus for recovering a clock from a received digital data stream, phase-shifted clock signals are generated from a receiver's clock. After selecting one of the phase-shifted clock signals, two other phase-shifted clock signals are determined. Depending on sample values taken at rising/falling edges of the three selected phase-shifted clock signals, counter values are increased and compared. The selection of phase-shifted clock signals and the steps of sampling the input digital data stream, comparing the values and increasing counter values, if required, are repeatedly performed until the comparison result of the counter values indicates that one of the latter determined phase-shifted clock signals strobes the received digital data stream in the centre of a bit period.
Abstract:
A system for receiving redirected electronic media playback includes a proxy configured to communicate with a remote access module. The remote access module is configured to establish a remote access connection between the system and a remote system. The proxy is configured to receive, over the remote access connection, a decode request for electronic media content designated for a local multimedia application on the system, and in return, provide a result for the request. The proxy is also configured to receive at least one playback command designated for playing the electronic media content on the local multimedia application. The electronic media appears to be playing on a remote multimedia application on the remote system corresponding to the local multimedia application, but is played on the local multimedia application. A system for redirecting playback of electronic media content to a remote system, methods, and machine-readable media are also provided.

An embodiment of a transmitter includes an amplifier having first and second differential output nodes, a first supply node, a first pull-up impedance having a first node coupled to the first differential output node and having a second node coupled to the supply node, and a second pull-up impedance having a first node coupled to the second differential output node and having a second node coupled to the supply node. An embodiment of a receiver includes an amplifier having first and second differential input nodes, a first supply node, a first pull-up impedance having a first node coupled to the first differential input node and having a second node coupled to the supply node, and a second pull-up impedance having a first node coupled to the second differential input node and having a second node coupled to the supply node. In an embodiment, the transmitter and receiver are capacitively coupled to one another.
