    摘要: A neutralization device is provided that is designed to block the operation of an electronic circuit when this device is insufficiently supplied. The device is designed especially for electronic circuits supplied with low supply voltages. The neutralization device comprises, upline with respect to an inhibiting means to block the operation of the electronic circuit, a control circuit reproducing the critical path or the potential critical paths of the functional electronic circuit in the form of elementary circuits. The deactivation of the inhibiting means is done only when the totality of the elementary circuits deliver same-state elementary signals indicating that the supply voltage is sufficient to ensure their efficient operation. The invention is useful in fields requiring low supply voltages such as mobile telephony or portable microcomputers.

    摘要: A device for the regeneration of a clock signal from an external serial bus includes a ring oscillator and counter. The ring oscillator provides n phases of a clock signal. Of these n phases, one phase is used as a reference and is applied to the counter. It is thus possible to count the number of entire reference clock signal periods between a first pulse and a second pulse received from the bus. In reading the state of the phases in the oscillator upon reception of the second pulse, a determination is made for a current phase corresponding to the phase delay between the reference clock signal and the second pulse of the bus. By using a regeneration device that also includes a ring oscillator and a counter, it is possible to regenerate the clock signal of the bus with high precision.

    摘要: A reference level generator in integrated circuit form comprises at least one first current circulation arm in which there are, in series, an N channel transistor and a P channel transistor, one of which is referred to as a reference transistor. The reference transistor has a drain connected to a gate in normal mode, the gate being connected to an output of the generator. Standby mode transistors are interposed between each current circulation arm and a supply terminal, and a mode control input gives a mode signal that turns the standby transistors off in standby mode and turns the standby transistors on in normal mode. A transistor controlled by the mode signal may be connected between the output and a non-floating reference potential, or a pass-gate may be inserted between the gate and the drain of the reference transistor, this gate being controlled by the mode signal to be off in the standby mode.
