  • Publication number: 20240147363
    Abstract: A method of a low power listening mode includes announcing, by a first wireless device is operating in a low power listening mode. The first wireless device in the low power listening mode receives an initial frame having a single spatial stream and a low data rate from a second wireless device. The frame requests a frame exchange with the first wireless device. The low data rate is lower than a maximum data rate of the first wireless device. A reply to the initial frame is transmitted to the second wireless device in a single spatial stream with the low data rate. The reply acknowledges an association with the second wireless device. The first wireless device wakes from the low power listening mode to a full capacity mode, and performs a frame exchange with the second wireless device in the full capacity mode.

  • Publication number: 20240146267
    Abstract: The techniques and circuits, described herein, include solutions for auto-zeroing in auto-zero amplifiers in the presence of high frequency alternating current (AC) noise. In some aspects, first and second inputs of an auto-zero amplifier are coupled to a differential voltage with high AC noise. During an auto-zero phase, a first switching network decouples the inputs of a first amplifier, comprised within the auto-zero amplifier, from the differential voltage with high AC noise. In some examples, the inputs of the first amplifier may be connected to a regulated direct current (DC) voltage. The regulated DC voltage provides a more accurate auto-zero for the auto-zero amplifier, such that higher overall accuracy is achieved during an operation phase.
