    Abstract: A circuit includes an antenna terminal for generating a current through electromagnetic induction. The circuit also includes a rectifier for receiving the current and generating a rectified power supply voltage. In addition, the circuit includes a voltage clamp for sinking at least some of the current from the antenna terminal based on the rectified power supply voltage from the rectifier. The voltage clamp could include a control circuit (such as an N-channel transistor and a resistor) for controlling the sinking of at least some of the current from the antenna terminal. The voltage clamp could also include a sink circuit (such as an N-channel transistor) for sinking at least some of the current from the antenna terminal. The voltage clamp could further include a sink control circuit (such as a P-channel transistor and a resistor) for activating and deactivating the sink circuit based on operation of the control circuit.

    Abstract: A slew rate control circuit includes a receiver for receiving input signals and an output generator for generating output signals based on the input signals. The slew rate control circuit also includes an electrical interconnection coupling an output of the receiver and an input of the output generator. In addition, the slew rate control circuit includes a voltage clamp for clamping a voltage on the electrical interconnection between two known voltage reference levels. The voltage clamp may include a first current source for providing driving capacity to a driver circuit to prevent the voltage on the electrical interconnection from falling below one known voltage reference level. The voltage clamp may also include a second current source and a third current source for providing sinking capacity to the driver circuit to prevent the voltage on the electrical interconnection from rising above the other known voltage reference level.
