  • Patent number: 11928507
    Abstract: A hardware-programmable digital signal path component for processing events from sensor mixed signal devices. A system includes a mixed signal component and a reconfigurable signal path component. The mixed signal component includes a group of sensor devices and generates one or more events from among the group of sensor devices. The signal path component receives the event(s), and includes a control unit component and a digital signal processor (DSP) component. The control unit component includes a programmable function enable mechanism, and distributes the received event(s) in combination with one or more functions among a set of predefined functions enabled by the programmable function enable mechanism. The DSP component is configured to perform one or more operations associated with the distributed event(s) in accordance with the enabled function(s).

  • Patent number: 9780770
    Abstract: A control unit is for a bridge circuit. The control unit may include a signal generator configured to generate first and second periodic drive signals for the bridge circuit, and determine a switch-on duration of the first and second periodic drive signals based upon a first digital data value having a first resolution. The control unit may include a controller configured to receive a second digital data value having a second resolution. The second resolution may be greater than the first resolution. The controller may be configured to generate the first digital data value so that, over periods of the first and second periodic drive signals, the first digital data value corresponds to an average of the second digital data value.
