Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure provide a circuit having an amplifier and a load current based control circuit. The amplifier is configured to detect a difference between a feedback voltage and a reference voltage, and control, based on the difference, a pass device to regulate an output voltage for supplying power to load devices. The feedback voltage is indicative of the regulated output voltage from the pass device. The load current based control circuit is configured to sense a load current output from the pass device to the load devices and generate a control signal to adjust a compensation capacitance based on the sensed load current to adjust a zero frequency of the circuit.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, an apparatus includes an amplifier configured to receive an asymmetric signal. A first resistance is coupled between an input node and an output node of the amplifier. A second resistance is coupled to the input node of the amplifier. A first switch is configured to be controlled during a first interval to couple the second resistance to a positive resistance to increase a gain of the amplifier to correct the asymmetric signal. The gain is a function of the first resistance and a combination of the second resistance and the positive resistance. A second switch is configured to be controlled during a second interval to couple the second resistance to a negative resistance to decrease the gain of the amplifier to correct the asymmetric signal. The gain is a function of the first resistance and a combination of the second resistance and the negative resistance.
Abstract:
The disclosure can provide methods and systems for autocalibrating a transceiver. The method can include upconverting a bandpass input signal by mixing the bandpass input signal with a first local oscillator signal to form an initial transmitter signal. The initial transmitter signal can be looped back to a receiver and downconverted with a second local oscillator signal having a frequency that is different from the first local oscillator to form an intermediate frequency signal. At least one of a gain and a phase of the transmitter can be adjusted based on a transmitter image sideband of the intermediate frequency signal to generate a calibrated transmitter signal having minimized transmitter image sideband.
Abstract:
A wireless network device comprising a physical layer (PHY) module and a media access control (MAC) module. The PHY module is configured to communicate with an 80 MHz channel. The 80 MHz channel includes a plurality of sub-bands including a first sub-band, a second sub-band, a third sub-band, and a fourth sub-band. One of the plurality of sub-bands corresponds to a primary channel. The PHY module is further configured to determine which of the plurality of sub-bands are receiving a data packet, and generate at least one clear channel assessment signal indicating which of the plurality of sub-bands are receiving the data packet. The MAC module is configured to receive the at least one clear channel assessment signal from the PHY module, and selectively transmit on the primary channel based on the at least one clear channel assessment signal.
