Abstract: In a synchronized data communication on a one-wired bus, it transmits and receives a synchronizing signal that segments part of or all proportions of the data signal by use of three electrically distinguishable statuses for the identifier of the synchronizing signal and the logic states of the data signal to increase the endurance of frequency displacement and resist influences of the interference of external conditions, low quality of transmission medium, and limitation of transmission distance and make the reliability and correctness of the signal transmission improve substantially. It is also clearly illustrated the feasibility and simplicity for implementing the one-wired synchronized communication by a plurality of exemplary signal types and a transceiver circuitry.

Abstract: A pulse width modulator includes an amplifier module, a comparator module, and a filter module. The amplifier module receives a feedback voltage signal from a passive network, and generates first and second non-inverted voltage signals and first and second inverted voltage signals in response to the feedback voltage signal. The comparator module receives the first and second non-inverted voltage signals and the first and second inverted voltage signals, and provides first and second differential voltage signals corresponding to the first and second non-inverted voltage signals and the first and second inverted voltage signals. The filter module is coupled between the amplifier module and the comparator module, and is operable so as to attenuate high frequency components of the first and second non-inverted voltage signals. As such, the presence of noise in the feedback voltage signal does not affect differential operation of the comparator module.

Abstract: A programmable voltage supervisory circuit and method with minimum programming pins and low quiescent current is provided to monitor a supply voltage, by which only one programming pin can configure three voltage levels for the threshold voltage to be compared to the supply voltage. The programming pin is connected with a voltage select signal that is defined to be high, low or floating states each determines a setting voltage among three levels corresponding to the three threshold voltages, respectively, by a voltage select circuit. A sample/hold circuit in combination with a switch arrangement is further connected to the voltage select circuit such that the programmable voltage supervisory circuit is only operationable during the duty of a clock and thereby to reduce the power consumption thereof by squeezing the duty.

Abstract: An inductor equivalent circuit is disclosed. The circuit comprises a reference current source, a first current mirror, a second current mirror, two operational amplifiers OP1 and OP2, a capacitor, a first transistor, a second transistor, a mirror resistor set, and a bypass current source in parallel with the capacitor. An input signal is through OP1 and second transistor to control the reference current source. The first mirror current is then feed-back a signal to the first transistor through an OP2. The current signal makes the drain current of the first transistor lags the input voltage signal by 90° due to the capacitor coupled with the first mirror current source.
