Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a combined serial data output and interrupt output terminal, a serial communication control circuit; an interrupt generation circuit, and an output circuit. The output circuit includes a serial data input, an interrupt input, and a combined serial data and interrupt output. The serial data input is coupled to a serial data output of the serial communication circuit. The interrupt input is coupled to an interrupt output of the interrupt generation circuit. The combined serial data and interrupt output is coupled to the combined serial data output and interrupt output terminal.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to efficiently transfer power wirelessly are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a feedback loop to when a second current value is greater than a first current value, change a direction value, the second current value being obtained after the first current value; when the second current value is less than the first current value, maintain the direction value; and a summer to when the direction value corresponds to a first direction value, increase a reference signal by a step size; and when the direction value corresponds to a second direction value different than the first direction value, decrease the reference signal by the step size.

Abstract: Dynamic biasing circuits for low drop out (LDO) regulators are described. In some embodiments, an electronic circuit may include a low drop out (LDO) regulator; and a biasing circuit coupled to the LDO regulator, the biasing circuit configured to: monitor a first electrical current and a second electrical current; select a greater of the first or second electrical currents; and provide the selected electrical current to the LDO regulator. In other embodiments, a method may include: providing a digital core and a low drop out (LDO) regulator coupled to the digital core, wherein the digital core is configured to operate in an active mode and in a standby mode; monitoring, via a current selector circuit coupled to the LDO regulator, a first current and a second current; selecting a greater of the first or second electrical currents; and providing the selected current as a biasing current to the LDO regulator.
