    Abstract: A diagnostic circuit is used for detecting the load status of an audio amplifier. The audio amplifier includes two output terminals for connection to a speaker. The diagnostic circuit may include a first circuit, which configured to generate a first signal indicating whether a signal provided via the two output terminals comprises an audio signal. A second circuit can be configured to detect a first measurement signal being indicative for the output current provided via the two output terminals, and to compare the first measurement signal with at least one threshold in order to generate a second signal indicating whether the output current has a low current amplitude profile or a high current amplitude profile. A third circuit can be configured to generate a diagnostic signal as a function of the first and the second signal.

    Abstract: A cryptographic method includes providing memory locations for storing encrypted data. The memory locations have respective addresses and are accessible via a communication bus. The method includes receiving over the communication bus access requests to the memory locations, wherein the access requests include burst requests for access to respective sets of the memory locations starting from respective start addresses, and calculating as a function of the start addresses encryption/decryption cryptographic masks based on cryptographic keys. Plain text data is received for encryption and the method includes applying the cryptographic masks to the plain text data to obtain therefrom encrypted data, and including the encrypted data into output data for transmission over the communication bus.

    Abstract: A phase change memory includes an L-shaped resistive element having a first part that extends between a layer of phase change material and an upper end of a conductive via and a second part that rests at least partially on the upper end of the conductive via and may further extend beyond a peripheral edge of the conductive via. The upper part of the conductive via is surrounded by an insulating material that is not likely to adversely react with the metal material of the resistive element.
