Abstract: In embodiments, a clock signal calibration circuit for communication transmitters includes a multiplexer that creates a combined output pattern from input data patterns in reaction to the clock signal's edges. It uses a calibration data pattern generator, which supplies two sequential patterns—the second being a shifted copy of the first—to the multiplexer. An averaging circuit then generates two averaged signals corresponding to these patterns. Duty cycle control circuitry corrects clock signal imbalances if these averaged signals are unequal, thus adjusting the duty cycle distortion to achieve an ideal 50% duty cycle.

Abstract: A device includes an optical integrated circuit device mounted over an upper surface of a support substrate. The optical integrated circuit device includes an optical sensor array supported by a semiconductor substrate made of a first semiconductor material. A discrete semiconductor block, made of a second semiconductor material, is mounted over an upper surface of the optical integrated circuit device adjacent the optical sensor array. The first and second semiconductor materials have substantially matched coefficients of thermal expansion. A parallelpipedal-shaped optical filter is mounted over an upper surface of the discrete semiconductor block and extends over the optical sensor array. One or more edges/corners of the parallelpipedal-shaped optical filter cantilever over the optical sensor array without any provided support.

Abstract: A method of controlling a receiver of radio frequency communications includes intervals between the reception of a data packet header and an acknowledgement sent by the receiver being constant, and, once a packet has been correctly received, circuits of the receiver are put into standby for a duration corresponding to the interval after each reception of a header of same rank as that of the correctly received packet.

Abstract: A circuit for transmitting/receiving signals through a galvanic isolation comprises an antenna transmitting/receiving radiofrequency signals modulated over a radiofrequency carrier, a transmitter receiving an input data signal, and a receiver delivering an output data signal. First and second capacitive circuitry are arranged between the antenna and the receiver and the transmitter, respectively. First and second switching circuitry couple the first and second capacitive circuitry to the antenna in an inductive-capacitive network, alternately: in a transmission mode, the first switching circuitry couples the first capacitive circuitry to ground with the receiver disabled, and the second switching circuitry decouples the second capacitive circuitry from the inductive-capacitive network with the transmitter enabled, and in a reception mode, the first switching circuitry decouples the first capacitive circuitry from ground, with the receiver enabled, and the second switching circuitry couples the second capacitive circuitry to the inductive-capacitive network with the transmitter disabled.

Abstract: A delta-sigma modulator includes a loop filter circuit having a first input that receives an input signal and a second input that receives a feedback signal. The loop filter circuit generates a filtered signal. A quantizer circuit quantizes the integrated signal to generate an output signal. An anti-windup circuit detects instances where the integrated signal is outside an input signal input of the quantizer circuit and in response thereto generates a dead zone signal having a magnitude and sign corresponding to a difference between the filtered signal and the input signal range. The feedback signal is a sum of the output signal and the dead zone signal.
