摘要: Examples described herein provide for a relaxation oscillator and corresponding methods of operation. In an example, a circuit includes a dynamically controllable current source, a capacitor, and an oscillator generation circuit. The dynamically controllable current source includes a digitally tunable current mirror configured to generate a current. The digitally tunable current mirror includes multiple transistors configured to be selectively electrically connected in parallel to alter a gain of the digitally tunable current mirror to control the current. The capacitor is selectively electrically connected to the dynamically controllable current source. The oscillator generation circuit is electrically connected to the capacitor. The oscillator generation circuit is configured to generate an oscillation signal in response to a voltage of the capacitor.

摘要: An antenna assembly is provided having passive cooling elements that enable compact design. In one example, an antenna assembly is provided that includes a heat sink assembly having an interior side and an exterior side, an antenna array, an antenna circuit board, and a radome. The antenna circuit board includes at least one integrated circuit (IC) die. The IC die has a conductive primary heat dissipation path to the interior side of the heat sink assembly. The radome is coupled to the heat sink assembly and encloses the antenna circuit board and the antenna array between the radome and the heat sink assembly. The heat sink assembly includes a metal base plate and at least a first heat pipe embedded with the metal base plate. The first heat pipe is disposed between the metal base plate and the IC die.

摘要: An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) circuit (400) and method of operation are disclosed. In some aspects, the ADC circuit (400) may include a plurality of channels (500), a gain calibration circuit (420), and a time-skew calibration circuit (430). Each of the plurality of channels (500) may include an ADC (520), a switch (510) configured to provide a differential input signal to the ADC (520), a calibration device (530), a multiplier (540), and a pseudorandom bit sequence (PRBS) circuit (550) to provide a pseudorandom number (PN) to the switch (510), to the calibration device (530), and to the multiplier (540). In some embodiments, the calibration device (530) may include first and second offset calibration circuits (531-532) coupled in parallel between a de-multiplexer (D1) and a multiplexer (M1) that alternately route signals to the first and second offset calibration circuits (531-532) based on the pseudorandom number (PN).

摘要: A radar system includes a transmitter to transmit a sequence of pulses, a receiver to receive reflections of the transmitted pulses, and velocity detection circuitry to determine a velocity of an object in a path of the transmitted pulses based at least in part on the transmitted pulses and the reflected pulses. The transmitter includes a plurality of digital-to-analog converters (DACs) to generate the sequence of pulses in response to a clock signal. The receiver includes a plurality of analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) to sample the reflected pulses in response to the clock signal. Accordingly, the ADCs are locked in phase with the DACs.

摘要: An integrated circuit is described. The integrated circuit comprises an analog-to-digital converter circuit configured to receive an input signal at an input and generate an output signal at an output; and a monitor circuit coupled to the output of the analog-to-digital converter circuit, the monitor circuit configured to receive the output signal and to generate integration coefficients for the analog-to-digital converter circuit; wherein the integration coefficients are dynamically generated based upon signal characteristics of the output signal generated by the analog-to-digital converter circuit. A method of receiving data in an integrated circuit is also described.
