    Abstract: A receiver for digital signals includes a radiofrequency stage. A feedback loop controls an amplitude of a modulated radiofrequency signal passing through the radiofrequency stage as a function of a comparison of a baseband signal with a reference value. A baseband stage includes an RC network cascaded to the radiofrequency stage and coupled to a baseband detector that generates the baseband signal. The feedback loop includes a circuit for detecting a range of variation of the comparison. The amplitude of the modulated radiofrequency signal is controlled as a function of an end value (e.g., maximum or minimum) of the detected range of variation. A switching circuit operates to selectively short circuit a resistive component of the RC network during receiver start-up.

    Abstract: An energy harvester circuit operates to harvest energy in battery-less electrical apparatus. The circuit includes a string of capacitors coupled to a circuit input to receive energy to be harvested. A string of transistors are coupled as pumping transistors to respective ones of the capacitors in the string of capacitors. A compensation coupling circuit is coupled between each transistor in the string of pumping transistors and one of a subsequent or a preceding transistor in the string of pumping transistors.

    Abstract: An oscillator circuit includes first and second oscillators arranged in a series configuration between a supply voltage node and a reference voltage node. The first and second oscillators are configured to receive a synchronizing signal for controlling synchronization in frequency and phase. An electromagnetic network provided to couple the first and the second oscillators includes a transformer with a primary circuit and a secondary circuit. The primary circuit includes a first portion coupled to the first oscillator and second portion coupled to the second oscillator. The first and second portions are connected by a circuit element for reuse of current between the first and second oscillators. The oscillator circuit is fabricated as an integrated circuit device wherein the electromagnetic network is formed in metallization layers of the device. The secondary circuit generates an output power combining power provided from the first and second portions of the primary circuit.

    Abstract: A system may be for the correction of phase and amplitude errors. The system may receive a first input signal and a second input signal and supply a first output signal and a second output signal. The system may include two adders that supply the first and second output signals, respectively. The two adders may be configured for computing a sum of the first and second input signals, and multiplying the weighted sum by a third coefficient. Moreover, the first coefficient or the second coefficient of the first adder may be variable to enable correction of the phase errors, and the third coefficient of the second adder may be variable to enable correction of the amplitude errors.

    Abstract: A power supply circuit for an electrical appliance, including a turning-on stage configured for determining a transition from a turned-off state, in which the power supply circuit is off and does not supply electric power, to a turned-on state of the power supply circuit. The turning-on stage includes a transducer of the remote-control type configured for triggering the transition in response to the reception of a wireless signal. In some embodiments, operating power is transmitted from a remote controller to a control circuit of the electronic equipment, such that the electronic equipment can be turned on remotely but draws zero standby power.
