Abstract:
A resistor network implemented in an integrated circuit includes a first plurality of interconnect traces coupled in series at a first plurality of nodes; a first plurality of switches coupled between the first plurality of nodes and an output node; a second plurality of interconnect traces coupled in series at a second plurality of nodes; and a second plurality of switches coupled between the second plurality of nodes and the output node, wherein a voltage at the output node is generated in response to a resistance of the resistor network based upon a configuration of the first plurality of switches and the second plurality of switches.
Abstract:
An out-of-band (OOB) detection circuit includes: a positive input node; a negative input node; a resistive circuit comprising a first resistor coupled between a first supply node and a first node, a variable resistor coupled between the first node and a second node, and a second resistor coupled between the second node and a ground; a first comparator configured to compare a difference between a positive input signal received at the positive input node and a negative input signal received at the negative input node against a positive threshold value, and a second comparator configured to compare the difference between the positive input signal received at the positive input node and the negative input signal received at the negative input node against a negative threshold value.
