Abstract: A transceiver device comprises a transceiver unit including an RF antenna, a serial communication port operatively coupleable with a further corresponding serial communication port of a protection and control device, a serial communication bus electrically connected between said serial communication port and said transceiver unit and having a transmission line and a reception line, a battery unit, and a feeding unit to feed said transceiver unit with a feeding voltage. The feeding unit comprises a first power supply stage electrically connected with said battery unit to harvest electric power from said battery unit and a second power supply stage electrically connected with the transmission line of said serial communication bus to harvest electric power from said transmission line, when said transmission line is said stand-by condition and takes an high-level voltage value.

Abstract: A transceiver device operatively coupleable with a protection and control device to provide wireless connectivity to the protection and control device.

Abstract: A level-shifter circuit is adapted for shift an input voltage into an output voltage that is variable between a negative voltage value up to a preset positive voltage level. The shifter circuit includes a first circuit adapted to shift the input voltage into the preset positive voltage level, a second circuit adapted to transfer the preset voltage level to a third circuit connected to a preset negative voltage value. The third circuit is connected to a further voltage at a positive or nil level and is adapted to supply an output voltage to the preset negative level or to the positive or nil level.
