    Abstract: A circuit includes a current controller oscillator generating a CCO output signal at a CCO output, a charge pump boosting a supply voltage based on the CCO output signal and producing a charge pump output voltage at an output, and a current sensing circuit sensing load current at the output and generating a feedback signal having a magnitude that varies with the sensed load current if a magnitude of the sensed load current is between lower and upper load current thresholds. A frequency of the CCO output signal is constant at a lower frequency threshold where the sensed load current is below the lower load current threshold, asymptomically rises to an upper frequency threshold where the sensed load current is above the upper load current threshold, and is proportional to the feedback signal where the sensed load current is between the lower and upper load current thresholds.

    Abstract: A method for mutual authentication that includes establishing a first inductive coupling between a wireless-power receiver and a wireless-power transmitter to transfer power from the wireless-power transmitter to the wireless-power receiver by a power signal and using the power signal to transmit a first response to a physically unclonable function to the wireless-power transmitter. The method further including generating a second response to the physically unclonable function and communicating information derived from the second response to initiate a mutual authentication process between the wireless-power receiver and the wireless-power transmitter during a subsequent inductive coupling.

    Abstract: A charge pump circuit has load driven clock frequency management. The charge pump circuit includes a CCO generating a CCO output signal that has a frequency generally proportional to a feedback current, and a charge pump operated by the CCO output signal and boosting a supply voltage to produce a charge pump output voltage at an output coupled to a load. A current sensing circuit senses a load current drawn by the load and generates the feedback current as having a magnitude that varies as a function of the sensed load current if a magnitude of the load current is between a lower load current threshold and an upper load current threshold. The magnitude of the feedback current does not vary with the sensed load current if the magnitude of the sensed load current is not between the lower load current threshold and the upper load current threshold.

    Abstract: A device includes a master device, a set of slave devices and a bus. The master device is configured to transmit first messages carrying a set of operation data message portions indicative of operations for implementation by slave devices of the set of slave devices, and second messages addressed to slave devices in the set of slave devices. The second messages convey identifiers identifying respective ones of the slave devices to which the second messages are addressed requesting respective reactions towards the master device within respective expected reaction intervals. The slave devices are configured to receive the first messages transmitted from the master device, read respective operation data message portions in the set of operation data message portions, implement respective operations as a function of the respective operation data message portions read, and receive the second messages transmitted from the master device.

    Abstract: A voltage regulator having bias current boosting is provided. The voltage regulator includes a power stage for providing an output voltage to a load. The voltage regulator includes a differential stage that receives a feedback voltage representative of the output voltage and a reference voltage and controls the power stage based on a difference between the reference voltage and the feedback voltage. The voltage regulator includes a bias current boosting stage that receives the feedback and reference voltages. The bias current boosting stage provides a boosted bias current having a current level that is based on the difference between the reference and feedback voltages. The boosted bias current biases the differential stage and hastens a response of the differential stage, in response to a change in the difference between the reference voltage and the feedback voltage, in controlling the power stage.
