摘要:
A system and method is disclosed for demodulating RF amplitude modulated signals in a demodulator circuit of an EPC0 compliant RFID tag. One advantageous embodiment of the invention comprises first and second input ports, a +ve envelope detector circuit for each of the first and second input ports, a −ve envelope detector circuit for each of the first and second input ports, a +ve envelope differentiator circuit, a +ve low pass filter, a −ve envelope differentiator circuit, a −ve low pass filter, and a zero crossing detector. The zero crossing detector detects a transition in the RF input signal using a voltage difference between a +ve filtered differentiated envelope signal and a −ve filtered differentiated envelope signal.

摘要:
An area efficient realization of an N-bit constant coefficient adder/subtractor implemented on FPGAs, utilizing N LUTs with single output generation capability. It includes three inputs from every LUT for addition/subtraction, without any requirement for extra logic for support of arithmetic mode and carry chains. For FPGAs supporting 4-input LUTs, the concept is further enhanced with the capability to perform addition and subtraction dynamically, by exploiting the fourth unused input of the LUTs. Another embodiment involves delay-optimized realization of an N-bit constant coefficient adder/subtractor implemented on FPGAs with 4-input LUTs. LUTs in the implementation have single output generation capability without any carry generation and propagation. The implementation utilizes N+1 LUTs and gives a delay proportional to N/2 of routing resource used. However, the implementation becomes more efficient by the use of cascade chains. The delay optimization is achieved by doing computation in two parallel chains.
摘要:
Particles are embedded in a substrate by applying to at least a portion of the substrate a fluid and a population of particles, such that the substrate is softened to at least a degree that particles are at least partially embedded in the softened portion of the substrate. The softened portion of the substrate is hardened so as to securely embed the particles in the substrate.
