    Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, a method includes driving a predetermined load using a driver circuit according to a drive pattern; supplying power to the driver circuit using a switched-mode power supply (SMPS) configured to be coupled to at least one external component; and verifying functionality of the SMPS while driving the predetermined load. Verifying the functionality includes monitoring at least one operating parameter of the SMPS, where the at least one operating parameter of the SMPS is dependent on the drive pattern and the at least one external component, comparing the at least one operating parameter to at least one expected operating parameter to form a first comparison result, and indicating an error condition based on the first comparison result.

    Abstract: A device is configured to receive, from a controller, an instruction requesting data for the device and determine a comparison result value based on a comparison of the data for the device and a reference value. The device is further configured to determine whether to respond to the instruction based on the comparison result value and, in response to a determination to respond to the instruction, output, to the controller, the comparison result value, wherein, to output the comparison result value, the device is configured to refrain from outputting the data for the device.

    Abstract: A device is operated in a low power mode of operation. The device receives a differential signal that includes a first polarity signal and a second polarity signal. A slope of a first direction is detected in the differential signal and a slope of a second direction is detected in the differential signal. A wakeup of the device is caused in response to the detection of the first slope of the differential signal and the second slope of the differential signal.

    Abstract: In some examples, this disclosure describes a method of measuring a temperature-dependent voltage drop over a temperature sensitive resistor. The method may comprise delivering a reference voltage to the temperature sensitive resistor in a first instance of time; determining an auto-ranging current through the temperature sensitive resistor while the reference voltage is delivered to the temperature sensitive resistor; determining a temperature measurement current based on the auto-ranging current; delivering the temperature measurement current to the temperature sensitive resistor in a second instance of time, wherein the second instance of time is after the first instance of time; and measuring the temperature-dependent voltage drop over the temperature sensitive resistor while the temperature measurement current is delivered to the temperature sensitive resistor.
