  • Patent number: 11641576
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for identifying a dual-mode wireless device, IOS device, and medium. The method includes: receiving a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) advertising packet from a slave device; extracting a Media Access Control (MAC) address carried in the BLE advertising packet from the slave device and that is of a master device that has established a classic Bluetooth connection with the slave device; and if the MAC address is a MAC address of a current master device, establishing a BLE connection with the slave device; or if the MAC address is not a MAC address of a current master device, ignoring the BLE advertising packet from the slave device. The method has advantages of a high identification speed and high identification accuracy. The method does not require an additional application for Apple's MFi certification, which saves certification costs, shortens the time on product development, and simplifies the production process.

  • Patent number: 11640367
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for high-speed drivers are provided herein. In certain embodiments, a high-speed driver multiplexes two or more data streams. The high-speed driver is implemented with a mux-then-driver topology that provides multiplexing in a predriver circuit. Thus, the multiplexer is eliminated from the full rate output path to relax timing. Driver amplitude control schemes are also disclosed in which a controllable driver includes a group of differential series source transistor (SST) driver slices that are connected in parallel with one another to drive a pair of output terminals, and a group of attenuator slices that are connected in parallel with one another across the pair of output terminals. Additionally, the controllable driver includes a control circuit that activates an attenuator slice for each SST driver slice that is decommissioned to provide output amplitude control.
