    摘要: A wireless local area network (WLAN) transceiving integrated circuit includes a WLAN interface, an input buffer, an input buffer controller, and a processor. The WLAN transceiving integrated circuit may also include an output buffer, an output buffer controller, a transcoder, and/or an audio Coder-Decoder (CODEC). The WLAN transceiving integrated circuit is installed in a WLAN device that services voice communications. The input buffer receives packetized audio data from the WLAN interface. When the input buffer satisfies a buffer vacancy threshold, the processor and the input buffer controller cooperatively operate to fill at least a portion of the input buffer with packetized audio data. The processor copies packetized audio data from the input buffer and fills the input buffer with the copied packetized audio data to maintain an audio pattern in the input buffer. The input buffer controller fills the input buffer when the processor is available and after copying/filling is no longer effective. The processor operates to maintain the audio pattern when additional packetized audio data is received by the WLAN interface. These operations are also performed for the output buffer, which receives packetized audio data from the transcoder and writes the packetized audio data to the WLAN interface.

    摘要: A wireless (radio) receiver receives RF signals carrying data synchronized with a first clock. The wireless receiver demodulates the RF signals to extract the data signals and the first clock signals. The wireless receiver uses the first clock signals as write signals to write the data signals in a first-in first-out memory device (FIFO). The data signals stored in the FIFO may be read out with read signals synchronized to a second clock. In one example, a host associated with the wireless receiver reads out data signals stored in the FIFO with read signals synchronized to the system clock of the host receiver. In another example, the wireless receiver includes a data processing circuit (e.g., including forward error correction, de-whitening, and cyclical redundancy check circuits) that reads out data signals stored in the FIFO with read signals synchronized to the system clock of the wireless receiver.A microprocessor system architecture is disclosed which allows for the selective execution of programmed ROM microcode or, alternatively, RAM microcode if there has been a correction or update made to the ROM microcode originally programmed into the system. Patched or updated RAM microcode is utilized or executed only to the extent of changes to the ROM microcode, otherwise the ROM microcode is executed in its normal fashion. When a patch is received, it is loaded into system RAM along with instructions or other appropriate signals to direct the execution of the patched or updated microcode from RAM instead of the existing ROM microcode. Various methods are presented for selecting the execution of the appropriate microcode depending upon whether there have been changes made to it.

    摘要: A system and method for detecting and gracefully recovering from a peripheral device fault has been disclosed. The method detects whether a peripheral device has suffered from a peripheral device fault. Where the peripheral device fault has occurred, the method determines whether any of a plurality of processes executable by the peripheral device is currently being executed by the peripheral device. The plurality of processes comprises those process which could result in significant loss of data, loss of connection to a network or adversely affect the performance of the peripheral device if the peripheral device is reset during execution of any of the plurality of processes. If none of the plurality of processes is being executed by the peripheral device, the method automatically resets the peripheral device. According to the method and system disclosed, peripheral devices can be made to recover from faults without user intervention, without loss of connection to any networks, and with minimal loss of data. Reliability is improved, thereby increasing overall system performance.

    摘要: An apparatus which includes a swivel base formed of a first plate and a second plate. The first and second plates each have a central aperture which is defined by a hook-shaped section of the second plate which extends over an interior edge of the first plate defining the first plate's central aperture. The hook-shaped section is preferably circumferentially continuous and fixes the first and second plates together while allowing for sliding engagement between the first and second plates. Bearing members, such as circumferentially spaced ball bearings are provided externally to the hook section and between the plates to facilitate sliding and load distribution. One of the plates includes hollow reception ports for holding the bearing circumferentially in place with respect to that plate while the opposite plate has a continuous riding ring in which the bearings are free to rotate. Each plate has an interior and exterior, preferably horizontal, plate section, and an intermediate section sloping between the adjacent, integral edges of the plate's interior and exterior sections. One manner of assembling the swivel base is described as well as an assembly including two structures to which the exterior sections of the plates are secured.

    摘要: A system and method for controlling a peripheral bus clock signal through a master and/or slave device is provided that accommodates a power conservation (or "clock run") scheme in which a peripheral bus clock signal may be stopped, for example, by a power management unit or other central resource. The clock run feature is enabled or disabled by the system during or immediately following system initialization, based upon the ability of the peripheral bus components to support the clock run feature. The system includes status and command registers to provide an indication of whether each of the peripheral bus devices can support the power conservation scheme. The status and command registers both include a bit dedicated to the clock run function. The status register bit is set based upon whether that particular device can support the clock run function. After each of the dedicated status register bits is checked, the dedicated command register bit is set in each of the peripheral bus devices to either enable or disable the clock run feature.
