Abstract: The disclosed technology can be used to convert direct-current voltage and current from an input to a different or the same voltage and current at an output. One example direct-current to direct-current (DC-DC) power converter includes a first switch connected between a source voltage and a first side of an inductor, a second switch connected between the first side of the inductor and a ground, a third switch connected between a second side of the inductor and the ground, and a fourth switch connected between the second side of the inductor and a capacitor. The power converter may further include a comparator configured to compare an output voltage at the capacitor to a threshold voltage and based on the result of the comparison selectively activate or deactivate the first, second, third, and fourth switches in a power cycle.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, devices and systems for all-in-one signal processing, linear and non-linear vector arithmetic accelerator. The accelerator, which in some implementations can operate as a companion co-processor and accelerator to a main system, can be configured to perform various linear and non-linear arithmetic operations, and is customized to provide shorter execution times and fewer task operations for corresponding arithmetic vector operation, thereby providing an overall energy saving. The compact accelerator can be implemented in devices in which energy consumption and footprint of the electronic circuits are important, such as in Internet of Things (IoT) devices, in sensors and as part of artificial intelligence systems.

Abstract: A circuit includes a primary transceiver, a secondary transceiver, and control logic. The primary transceiver communicates information via a primary communication link. The secondary transceiver communicates information via a secondary communication link. The control logic is operatively coupled to the primary and secondary transceivers. The control logic selectively powers down the primary transceiver based on primary communication link traffic trigger information and causes communication using the secondary transceiver instead of the primary transceiver based on the primary communication link traffic trigger information.
