Abstract: A method for writing data into an EEPROM connected to an I2C bus, wherein the data to be written is transmitted in frames having a size corresponding to the size of a physical half-page of the memory. The programming of a data page in the memory is performed while another page is being received.

Abstract: An operational amplifier may include a differential stage comprising two transistors whose gates are respectively linked to the two inputs of the operational amplifier. The sources of the two transistors may be linked to a first current source whose delivered current depends negatively on temperature variations and to a second current source whose delivered current is proportional to absolute temperature. The sum of these two currents may be less dependent on temperature, in that this link of the sources of the two transistors with the two current sources is effected respectively by way of two resistors, and in that the current which passes through the two transistors is imposed of proportional with temperature type, so as to allow substantially temperature-independent elimination of the offset voltage of the operational amplifier while obtaining a temperature-independent constant gain-bandwidth product.

Abstract: A method is for processing transmission errors during contactless communication of information between a device and a reader. The information may be transmitted in the form of frames sent to a send/receive module of the reader in contactless coupling with the device and controlled by a control module coupled to the send/receive module. The information may be extracted from the frames within the send/receive module so as to be delivered to the control module. The method may include a detection of transmission errors that are to be ignored.

Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a number of metallization levels separated by an insulating region disposed over a substrate. A housing includes walls formed from metal portions produced in various metallization levels. A metal device is housed in the housing. An aperture is produced in at least one wall of the housing. An external mechanism outside of the housing is configured so as to form an obstacle to diffusion of a fluid out of the housing through the at least one aperture. At least one through-metallization passes through the external mechanism and penetrates into the housing through the aperture in order to make contact with at least one element of the metal device.

Abstract: A method for producing an integrated circuit pointed element is disclosed. An element has a projection with a concave part directing its concavity towards the element. The element includes a first etchable material. A zone is formed around the concave part of the element. The zone includes a second material that is less rapidly etchable than the first material for a particular etchant. The first material and the second material are etched with the particular etchant to form an open crater in the concave part and thus to form a pointed region of the element.
