Abstract:
An apparatus comprising a phase lock loop (PLL) and a lock circuit. The PLL may be configured to multiply an input frequency in response to a lock signal. The lock circuit may be configured to generate the lock signal. The PLL may also be configured to select a reference frequency as (i) the input frequency when in a first mode and (ii) a divided frequency of the input frequency when in a second mode.

A digital filter is designed by characterizing a desired filter passband in the frequency domain, transforming this representation into the time domain, selecting weighting coefficients at periodically spaced intervals from this transformed function, and weighting the coefficients with a Gaussian windowing function. This function may take the form:.sub.e -.vertline.( 2 n-N)/A.vertline..sup.Pwhere:A=N(-ln.epsilon.).sup.-1/P; .epsilon.

Abstract:
A direct conversion FM receiver that includes AC coupling and automatic gain control employs an offset frequency at the first local oscillator. The offset frequency prevents the frequency spectrum occupied by the signal modulation from being affected by AC coupling. The offset frequency is chosen so that it translates the frequency spectrum of the received signal outside the DC notch created in the spectrum by the AC coupling. To conserve battery supplied power, an error amplifier coupled between the output of the receiver and the first local oscillator maintains the offset frequency after it has been established by a frequency synthesizer, which is then turned off.

Abstract:
Systems and method for tracking different types of transconductance cells is shown and described. In these multi-cell systems, the addition of one or more tracking control modules allows circuit designers to advantageously incorporate multiple transconductor topologies and their uniquely beneficial characteristics into their designs, without eradicating its centralized multi-cell tuning functionality.
Abstract:
A transmitter digital signal processor (DSP) circuit has a transmit frequency represented by n-bit data output from a look up table (LUT). The n-bit data is outputted to an n-bit accumulator structured to overflow at a rate based on the output n-bit data to output a phase. The circuit further has device structured to add an n-bit signed constant to the accumulator to offset the frequency represented by the n-bit data output from the LUT. A transceiver on a semiconductor chip may include as part of a transmitter circuit, a transmit DSP circuit that has the LUT, accumulator and device providing an n-bit signed constant to the accumulator to offset a transmit frequency in order to allow a receiver circuit on the transceiver to communicate directly with the transmitter circuit, and thus allowing testing of the transceiver.
Abstract:
Embodiments of a frequency modulated (FM) demodulator and associated methods are generally described. According to but one example embodiment, an apparatus is disclosed comprising a receiver front-end, to receive a signal from one or more antenna(e) and generate quadrature components of the received signal, and a frequency-shifted, cross-multiplied differentiator demodulator, coupled with the receiver front-end, to generate a demodulated representation of the received signal centered at a select intermediate frequency.
Abstract:
A wrist band for a wrist-mounted radio system is provided wherein a metallic wrist-band buckle need not be insulated. The system includes a radio receiver which includes a differential input in a wrist-band antenna with a "null point" at the location of the buckle. The wrist-band antenna is insulated from the wearer's body at all points except at the buckle.
