Abstract:
Techniques for facilitating wireless communication include receiving a message from a mobile station, the message comprising a service option field indicative of an advanced radio configuration capability of the mobile station and establishing a radio link between the mobile station and the serving base station, by using the indicated advanced radio configuration capability. In some implementations, in a CDMA2000 network, a Revision E compliant mobile station is able to operate in Revision E mode with a Revision E base station and a legacy mode with a legacy base station, without being affected by a handoff and without a need to modify bit length of the revision field in the paging response message from the mobile station.

Abstract:
A time to current conversion apparatus and methods. An impedance having an input for selectively receiving a time varying periodic signal or a known voltage signal is provided; and a current output is coupled to the impedance. By observing the average current through the impedance for the known voltage signal over a time period, and by observing the average current through the impedance for a time varying periodic signal, the duty cycle of the time varying periodic signal may be determined by evaluating a ratio of a first average current observed at the current output while the time varying periodic signal is coupled to the impedance to a second average current observed at the current output while the known voltage signal is coupled to the impedance. An embodiment time to current converter circuit is disclosed. Method embodiments for determining the duty cycle of a time varying periodic signal are provided.
Abstract:
A method of debugging within an integrated circuit (IC) that includes an embedded processor can include detecting an event within a circuit of the IC that is external to the processor and, responsive to detecting the event, initiating a debug function within the processor. Similarly, responsive to detecting an event within the processor, a debug function within a circuit block of the IC that is external to the processor can be initiated. Trace data generated within the processor and trace data generated within the programmable fabric further can be merged to generate combined trace data.
