  • Patent number: 8489033
    Abstract: A method for operating an integrated transceiver, comprising coupling an operating transmitter and an operating receiver within the integrated wideband receiver, inputting a signal into the operating transmitter, performing a first conversion of the signal, wherein the signal is converted into a second signal, transmitting the second signal into the operating receiver, performing a second conversion of the signal, wherein the signal is converted into a third signal, transmitting the third signal into the operating transmitter, and adjusting the operating transmitter.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 4424419
    Abstract: An electret microphone has a metal shield around it in order to guard against electromagnetic interference. Acoustic waves reach the electret element through a passage in the shield. The electret response is undesirably affected by an electric field produced by body capacitance when the microphone is brought close to a user's mouth. To overcome this effect, the microphone has a conductive film, transparent to acoustic waves, positioned between the passage and the electret element, the film contacting a grounded part of the casing. The conductive film can form an integral part of a microphone moisture barrier.

  • Patent number: 4365168
    Abstract: A porcelain coated metal substrate bearing a printed circuit and in which a capacitive coupling is created between the substrate and the circuit to eliminate unwanted frequencies. This coupling is formed by the inclusion of a conductive element on the porcelain. The conductive element is out of direct electrical contact with the printed circuit and has a means to connect the element to ground. Connection to ground provides the desired capacitive coupling and another capacitive coupling from the metal substrate to the conductive element, the two couplings being in series.

  • Patent number: 4360710
    Abstract: Telephone circuit using a transconductance switch in a high current line with the voice network, and a dial network in a low current line with the control input of the switch to provide dial input signals at the control input and send dial pulse signalling along the high current line through the voice network. The voice network includes a current clamp to stabilize the high current through the switch to the voice network sufficiently quickly to establish the desired waveform during dialling.
