  • Radar
    Patent number: 9851431
    Abstract: An antenna system (1) comprises a directional antenna (2) adapted to rotate through a range of directions in azimuth. It is responsive to radio-frequency (RF) signals received from directions within the range of directions in azimuth. A receiver (7) is arranged to receive the RF signals from the antenna within a signal frequency response band of the receiver and to provide a corresponding output for signal processing. A signal filter (11) is operable to block the output from the receiver when the frequency of the RF signal lies at a frequency within the signal frequency response band of the receiver and a detector unit (8) is arranged to apply the signal filter when the directional antenna is directed to a predetermined azimuth at which an interference source is located and to not apply the signal filter otherwise.

  • Packaged oscillators with built-in self-test circuits that support resonator testing with reduced pin count
    Patent number: 9791503
    Abstract: Packaged integrated circuit devices include an oscillator circuit having a resonator (e.g., quartz crystal, MEMs, etc.) associated therewith, which is configured to generate a periodic reference signal. A built-in self-test (BIST) circuit is provided, which is selectively electrically coupled to first and second terminals of the resonator during an operation by the BIST circuit to test at least one performance characteristic of the resonator, such as at least one failure mode. These test operations may occur during a built-in self-test time interval when the oscillator circuit is at least partially disabled. In this manner, built-in self-test circuitry may be utilized to provide an efficient means of testing a resonating element/structure using circuitry that is integrated within an oscillator chip and within a wafer-level chip-scale package (WLCSP) containing the resonator.
