    Abstract: Apparatus for clock synchronization comprising a first phase locked loop (405) and a second phase locked loop (400). The first phase locked loop (405) is configured to receive a reference signal (Fcrystal) having a reference frequency, and operable to produce an output signal (Fout) having an output frequency that is a multiple of the reference frequency. The first phase locked loop (405) comprises a frequency divider (428) that controls the multiple in response to a control signal. The second phase locked loop (400) is configured to determine a phase error between the output signal (Fout) and an input signal (Fantenna), and to provide the control signal to the first phase locked loop (405). The second phase locked loop (400) comprises phase adjustment means (450), operable to adjust a phase difference between the input and output signal by varying the control signal for a duration.

    Abstract: A contactless communication device includes a receiver unit having differential input terminals for connecting to an antenna. The receiver unit is coupled to a transmitting device and receives an RF signal transmitted by the transmitting device. A first comparator is adapted to generate a first comparator output signal indicative of a relationship between a voltage at a positive input terminal of the receiver unit and a first reference voltage. A second comparator is adapted to generate a second comparator output signal indicative of a relationship between a voltage at a negative input terminal of the receiver unit and a second reference voltage. A first voltage regulation circuit is adapted to regulate the voltage at the positive input terminal in response to the first comparator output signal. A second voltage regulation circuit is adapted to regulate the voltage at the negative input terminal in response to the second comparator output signal.
