    Abstract: Methods of operating an induction geyser include drawing current through a resonant tank via a transistor, generating a changing magnetic field around the resonant tank. Owing to the strategic placement of the resonant tank in proximity to a fluid tank, the changing magnetic field envelopes the fluid tank. In a first method, the voltage across the transistor's conduction terminals is monitored, and when this voltage surpasses a predefined threshold, indicating an overvoltage condition, a corrective action is initiated in which a gate driver pulls up a gate drive signal that drives the transistor. In a second method, the current flowing between the transistor's conduction terminals is monitored, and upon detecting an overcurrent condition where the current exceeds a set threshold the gate driver is activated to pull down the gate drive signal. Both methods aim to keep operation of the geyser within desired parameters.

    Abstract: A processing system includes a plurality of configuration data clients; each associated with a respective address and including a respective register, a hardware block, a non-volatile memory, and a hardware configuration circuit. A respective configuration data client receives a respective first configuration data and stores it in the respective register. The hardware block is coupled to at least one of the configuration data clients and changes operation as a function of the respective first configuration data stored in the respective registers. The non-volatile memory includes second configuration data stored as data packets including the respective first configuration data and an attribute field identifying the respective address of one of the configuration data clients. The hardware configuration circuit sequentially reads the data packets from the non-volatile memory and transmits the respective first configuration data to the respective configuration data client.

    Abstract: A processing system is described. The processing system comprises a microprocessor, a memory controller, a resource and a communication system. The microprocessor is configured to send read requests in order to request the transmission of first data, or write requests comprising second data. The memory controller is configured to read third data from a memory. The processing system comprises also a safety monitor circuit comprising an error detection circuit configured to receive data bits and respective Error Correction Code, ECC, bits, wherein the data bits correspond to the first, second or third data. The safety monitor circuit calculates further ECC bits and generates an error signal by comparing the calculated ECC bits with the received ECC bits. A fault collection and error management circuit receives the error signal from the safety monitor circuits. For example the safety monitor circuit comprises a test circuit configured to provide modified data bits and/or modified ECC bits to the error detection circuit as a function of connectivity test control signals, whereby the error detection circuit asserts the error signal as a function of the connectivity test control signals. The processing system comprises also a connectivity test control circuit comprising control registers programmable via the microprocessor, wherein the connectivity test control signals are generated as a function of the content of the control registers.
