Abstract: In an embodiment, PhotoPlethysmoGraphy (PPG) signals are processed by detecting peaks and valleys in the PPG signal, segmenting the PPG signal to provide a time series of PPG waveforms located between two subsequent valleys in the PPG signal, applying to the waveforms in the time series pattern recognition with respect to a reference PPG waveform pattern produced based on a mathematical model of the PPG signal by assigning to the waveforms in the time series a recognition score. A resulting PPG signal is produced by retaining the waveforms in the time series having an assigned recognition score reaching a recognition threshold, and discarding the waveforms in the time series having an assigned recognition score failing to reach the recognition threshold.

Abstract: A method for operating a differential memory includes: operating a main memory module differentially while executing a first program; copying first logic data from a first submodule of the main memory module to an auxiliary memory module; storing third logic data associated with a second program in a second submodule of the main memory module by overwriting second logic data associated with the first program, while maintaining the first logic data contained in the first submodule of the main memory module unaltered, where the second logic data are complementary to the first logic data; when a request for reading the first logic data is received during the storing of the third logic data in the second submodule of the main memory module, reading the first logic data from the auxiliary memory module; and executing the first or second programs by operating the main memory module in single-ended mode.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a rectifier bridge that includes an input configured to be coupled to power over Ethernet (PoE) power sourcing equipment (PSE), and an output. A transistor is configured to selectively couple the output with a load. The electronic device includes a maintain power signature (MPS) device, and a control circuit. The control circuit is to maintain the transistor on when a load current is above a threshold, source current from the rectifier bridge to the MPS device when the load current is below the threshold, and switch the transistor to a diode configuration when the load current is below the threshold.
