摘要:
A wireless communication receiver includes a first signal processing circuit, a second signal processing circuit, and a detecting circuit. The first signal processing circuit generates a first processed signal by processing a received radio frequency (RF) signal. The second signal processing circuit is coupled to the first signal processing circuit. The detecting circuit monitors a specific signal of the first signal processing circuit and generates at least a control signal to the second signal processing circuit in response to a signal level of the monitored specific signal. The control signal controls the second signal processing circuit to switch from a first operation mode to a second operation mode.

An interference-robust receiver includes an RF signal processor, a frequency conversion interface and an analog signal processor. The RF signal processor provides an RF signal. The frequency conversion interface includes a passive mixer for generating an intermediate frequency signal by down-converting an in-band part of the RF signal to a passband of a filter and down-converting an out-of-band part of the RF signal to a stopband of the filter. The filter can thus filter the intermediate frequency signal with the passband and the stopband.

One exemplary receiver for a wireless communication system includes a plurality of signal processing components arranged to generate a receiver output according to a radio frequency (RF) signal. The signal processing components include amplifiers having a class-AB biased amplifier included therein. The signal processing components are disposed in a chip, and the class-AB biased amplifier is an amplifier which processes a signal corresponding to the RF signal before any other amplifier included in the chip. Another exemplary receiver for a wireless communication system includes an RF signal processor and a frequency conversion interface. The RF signal processor is to generate an RF signal, and has a class-AB biased amplifier arranged to apply amplification upon the RF signal. The frequency conversion interface is coupled to the RF signal processor, and used for receiving the RF signal generated from the RF signal processor and generating a down-converted result of the RF signal.

An apparatus for determining phase difference information between a first signal and a second signal includes a first detector, a second detector and a counter. The first detector is used for detecting a first value of the first signal, the second detector is used for detecting a second value of the second signal, and the counter is used for counting a timing when the first signal is at the first value and a timing when the second signal is at the second value with a reference clock signal to generate a counter value which serves as a basis of the phase difference information.

An input/output device comprises a bonding pad, a signal transport circuit, and a blocking unit. The signal transport circuit has a first terminal connected to the bonding pad and a second terminal connected to a core circuit of an IC product. The signal transport circuit is capable of transporting a signal either from the bonding pad to the core circuit or from the core circuit to the bonding pad. The blocking unit has a control terminal and is coupled between the bonding pad and the signal transport circuit. The control terminal is coupled to receive an enable signal. The blocking unit ties the bonding pad to a predetermined voltage level when the enable signal is de-asserted, thereby blocking the signal transport provided by the signal transport circuit. The blocking unit unties the bonding pad from the predetermined voltage level when the enable signal is asserted.

A temperature sensing apparatus for generating a sensing signal for indicating whether the temperature is higher or lower than a first threshold includes a bipolar junction transistor and a resistor. The bipolar junction transistor has a base terminal receiving a first constant voltage, an emitter terminal receiving a second constant voltage, and a collector terminal connecting to a node. The resistor is coupled between the node and a supply voltage. The first threshold is a value corresponding to the difference between the first and second constant voltages. The signal at the node is outputted to generate the sensing signal, which indicates the temperature is higher than the first threshold if the sensing signal is lower than a second threshold, and indicates the temperature is lower than the first threshold if the sensing signal is higher than the second threshold.
