    Abstract: An acquisition stage receives a digital input signal and generates therefrom a first digital signal and a second digital signal complementary thereto. First and second processing stages receive the first and second digital signals and generate therefrom first and second analog signals in time with first and second complementary clock signals. An output stage generates an internal clock signal equivalent to one of: the first clock signal phase shifted by a duration of a transient occurring during a period of the first clock signal, or the second clock signal phase shifted by a duration of a transient occurring during a period of the second clock signal. The output stage produces an analog output signal equal to the first analog signal when the internal clock signal is at a first logic level, and equal to the second analog signal when the internal clock signal is at a second logic level.

    Abstract: A circuit includes, in series between a first terminal and a second terminal of application of a power supply voltage, and first and second branches. The first branch includes a first transistor and a first current source coupled to the first transistor. The second branch includes a resistive element, a second transistor coupled to the resistive element and forming a current mirror with the first transistor and a second current source coupled to the second transistor. The resistive element conditions a threshold of detection of a variation of the power supply voltage.

    Abstract: A method can be used for compensating a voltage drop on a cable connected between a source device and a receiver device. The source device delivers an offset current on a channel configuration pin of the source device, the offset current causing an increase in a voltage on the channel configuration pin of the source device to a chosen reference voltage. The offset current is stored in the source device. The source device absorbs an absorption current originating from the channel configuration pin of the source device, the absorption current depending on the stored offset current and on the voltage drop. The source device generates a compensated supply voltage on a power supply pin of the source device, the compensated supply voltage equal to a reference supply voltage increased by the voltage drop to within a tolerance.

    Abstract: An audio device includes an audio amplifier configured to receive an input signal and generate a differential output signal. A first signal combiner circuit is configured to generate a time-convolution signal of an analog current signal and an analog voltage signal. The analog current signal corresponds to a current at the differential output signal, and the analog voltage signal corresponds to a voltage across the differential output signal. A second signal combiner circuit is configured to subtract the generated time-convolution signal from the input signal.
