A system and method in accordance with the present invention provides a gyroscope incorporating an improved PLL technique. The improved PLL auto-corrects its own reference low-frequency noise, thereby eliminating this source of noise, improving the noise performance of the gyroscope and allowing a compact implementation. The net result is a gyroscope with improved bias stability that can meet noise requirements with a smaller footprint.

A method and apparatus for data multiplexing is capable of high-speed operation with acceptable timing margins and has reduced sensitivity to supply voltage, temperature, manufacturing and other variations. One implementation relates to a data multiplexer that has no significant speed limitation associated with the clock-to-data delay of data latches, flip-flops, etc. In one implementation, clock-to-data delay is compensated for by introducing a delay-compensator in the clock line that drives a selector stage of the multiplexer. In one such implementation, a timing relationship is established between clock and data waveforms by timing the data waveforms with a first in-phase clock and operating the delay-compensated selector clock line with a second clock, which is delayed with respect to the first clock. The second clock can have a quadrature-phase delay with respect to the in-phase clock.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems and methods for estimating gain and phase error in a wireless transmitter. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a gain and phase controller that uses a digital gain and phase estimator to jointly estimate both gain and phase. The forward and feedback signals of a wireless transmitter are digitized using analog to digital (ADC) converters. The digital signals are correlated with each other to dynamically extract gain and phase estimates of the loop. The gain and phase estimates are used to correct gain and phase errors in the wireless transmitter.

A method and apparatus of compensating for an asymmetric frequency response of a radio are disclosed. One method includes estimating a slope control signal, the slope control signal indicating a slope of a frequency response of an amplifier chain of the radio. A difference between gain at positive frequencies and gain at negative frequencies of a complex baseband signal is adjusted with the slope control signal, wherein the complex signal includes an I component and a Q component. The adjusted complex baseband signal is frequency up-converted into a radio signal. The radio signal is amplified by the amplifier chain. The amplified radio signal is transmitted.

Described herein are systems, devices, and methods that provide a stable magnetometer. The magnetometer includes a drive element that facilitates flow of a drive current through a node and a sense element operable to detect a magnetic field operating on the drive current. To reduce offset in the detection of the magnetic field, a voltage detector, electrically coupled to the drive element through the node, determines a variation between a node voltage and a target voltage. The voltage detector facilitates suppression of the variation and thereby minimizes the offset in the sense element.

The present invention relates to a combination of a 6-axis motion sensor having a 3-axis gyroscope and a 3-axis linear accelerometer, a motion processor and a radio integrated circuit chip (IC), wherein the intelligence in the motion processor enables the communication between the motion sensor, the radio IC and the external network. The motion processor also enables power savings by adaptively controlling the data rate of the motion sensor, depending on the amount or speed of the motion activity.
