  • Publication number: 20230188178
    Abstract: A wireless communication device can include chains of circuitry, with at least one chain being a chain of transmitter circuitry to generate output radio frequency (RF) signals using baseband signals and at least one chain of receiver circuitry configured to receive RF signals. At least one chain can include a plurality of circuit blocks, a circuit block including at least one of oscillator circuitry, clocking circuitry, and phased lock loop (PLL) circuitry. The apparatus can include interconnect circuitry configured to couple one of the plurality of circuit blocks to a respective chain. Other systems, methods and apparatuses are described.

  • Patent number: 10594330
    Abstract: Methods adapted for digital-to-analog conversion compensation and systems are described. In a compensation method, inputs of a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) are adjusted to provide an even number inputs for the DAC. Further, one or more analog input signals are converted to generate one or more corresponding digital output signals. The one or more digital output signals are compensated to compensate for the adjustment of the inputs of the DAC.

  • Patent number: 10148278
    Abstract: Some embodiments include apparatus and methods using an integrator in a loop filter of a sigma-delta analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) located on a feedback path of the ADC, the DAC including output nodes coupled to input nodes of the integrator, and a comparator including input nodes to receive signals from output nodes of the integrator, and an output node to provide information during calibration of the DAC.
