Abstract:
A method for detecting and correcting an error in a circuit is provided. The circuit is configured to receive an input signal and clock the input signal with a rising and falling timing signal. The method includes detecting late arrival signal transition of the input signal, at an intermediate point of a path, the path being one through which the input signal transits. The method further includes predicting an error in the input signal in response to detecting the late arrival signal transition at the intermediate point of the path. In addition, the method includes correcting the error in the input signal by manipulating the timing signal and/or a supply voltage.
Abstract:
An electrocardiogram (ECG) signal processing system is provided. The ECG signal processing system comprises an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) configured to convert an input analog ECG signal into a digital ECG signal, and a digital signal processing engine (DSPE) coupled to the ADC to receive the digital ECG signal. The DSPE is configured to decompose and reconstruct the digital ECG signal. A dynamic system clock source is coupled to the ADC and the DSPE for dynamic signal sampling, the dynamic system clock source clocking the ADC and the DSPE at a first frequency f1 to detect one or more first parameters of the input analog ECG signal and at a second frequency f2 to detect one or more second parameters of the input analog ECG signal.
Abstract:
A circuit arrangement may be provided including a level shifting stage configured to be coupled to a first reference voltage and a second reference voltage. The circuit arrangement may also include a first input electrode in electrical connection with the level shifting stage for coupling a first input voltage and a second input electrode in electrical connection with the level shifting stage for coupling a second input voltage. The level shifting stage may be configured to generate an output voltage above a predetermined output level at the output node due to the first reference voltage when the first input voltage is in the first logic state and the second input voltage is in the second logic state. The circuit arrangement may also include a feedback circuit coupled to the output stage and the level shifting stage and a voltage stabilization circuit coupled to the level shifting stage.
