摘要： An apparatus for calibrating gain of an radio frequency receiver (“Rx”) is disclosed to provide, among other things, a structure for performing in-situ gain calibration of an RF integrated circuit over time and/or over temperature without removing the RF integrated circuit from its operational configuration, especially when the gain of the RF integrated circuit is susceptible to variations in process, such as inherent with the CMOS process. In one embodiment, an exemplary apparatus includes a thermal noise generator configured to generate thermal noise as a calibrating signal into an input of an Rx path of an RF integrated circuit. The apparatus also includes a calibrator configured to first measure an output signal from an output of the Rx path, and then adjust a gain of the Rx path based on the thermal noise. In one embodiment, the thermal noise generator further includes a termination resistance and/or impedance.

摘要： A dynamic image delivery system receives a client request for an image at an image caching server. The image caching server measures the client's network access speed and looks for an appropriate pre-rendered copy of the requested image that is rendered for the client's network access speed in local storage. If the appropriate rendered copy is found, then the image caching server sends the rendered image to the client. If it is not found, then the image caching server dynamically renders a copy of the image and sends it to the client.

摘要： A novel signal processing scheme comprises a digital to analog converter which is clocked at a first frequency, and a switched capacitor filter which receives input from the digital to analog converter and is clocked at a second frequency which is a multiple N times the first frequency. A preferred version of the present invention further comprises an analog signal sychronization circuit which allows the switched capacitor filter to oversample output from the digital to analog converter. The analog signal sychronization circuit comprises a sample and hold circuit, which receives input from the digital to analog converter and holds the input so that the switched capacitor filter can sample the same input N times, and a digital clock generator, which clocks the sample and hold circuit such that the sample and hold circuit only samples settled and valid output data from the digital to analog converter. An RC active filter receives input from the switched capacitor filter and rejects signal images at the first and higher frequencies.
