Abstract: A tag adapted to be applied to an object is disclosed. The tag includes a wireless communication interface, a processor and a memory. A univocal code, a cipher key and a count value are store in the memory. The tag generates a dynamic code as a function of the cipher key and the count value. Next, the tag varies the count value according to a determined operation, and stores the varied count value in the memory. The tag transmits the univocal code and the dynamic code to a reader device. The tag may transmit the univocal code and the dynamic code in a URL.

Abstract: An integrated MOSFET device is formed in a body of silicon carbide and with a first type of conductivity. The body accommodates a first body region, with a second type of conductivity; a JFET region adjacent to the first body region; a first source region, with the first type of conductivity, extending into the interior of the first body region; an implanted structure, with the second type of conductivity, extending into the interior of the JFET region. An isolated gate structure lies partially over the first body region, the first source region and the JFET region. A first metallization layer extends over the first surface and forms, in direct contact with the implanted structure and with the JFET region, a JBS diode.

Abstract: An exemplary package comprises a smart card having a first side and a second side, the first side comprising a first area having reproduced thereon first readable information and a second area having reproduced thereon second readable information. The first side having a laminar member applied so as to cover the first side, the laminar member comprising a light-impermeable material and a first light-permeable portion at the first side. The first readable information is visible through the first light-permeable portion and the second readable information is covered and made invisible by the light-impermeable material. A light-permeable film material is wrapped onto the smart card having the laminar member applied thereon.

Abstract: A high voltage driving circuit for driving a load receives a low voltage input signal and generates a high voltage output signal. A short circuit protection circuit including a first electronic switch operated by the low voltage input signal and a second electronic switch operated by a low voltage signal obtained by a voltage division of the output high voltage signal. The first electronic switch causing a first pull-up current to be sent to a capacitive element whose voltage controls an input of a threshold comparator. A second electronic switch causes a second pull-down current to be drawn from the capacitive element whose voltage controls the input of the threshold comparator. A short circuit detection signal is generated at an output of said threshold comparator, indicating a short circuit and capable of inhibiting operation of the driving circuit.

Abstract: A photovoltaic cell may include a hydrogenated amorphous silicon layer including a n-type doped region and a p-type doped region. The n-type doped region may be separated from the p-type doped region by an intrinsic region. The photovoltaic cell may include a front transparent electrode connected to the n-type doped region, and a rear electrode connected to the p-type doped region. The efficiency may be optimized for indoor lighting values by tuning the value of the H2/SiH4 ratio of the hydrogenated amorphous silicon layer.
