Abstract: Multi-path signal processing for microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) sensors is described. An exemplary MEMS sensor apparatus can comprise a single MEMS sensor element and an associated integrated circuit (IC) that facilitates generating multiple output signals having different output signal electrical characteristics required by a host system. Provided implementations can minimize cost and IC die area of associated MEMS sensor apparatuses and systems by employing one or more signal multiplexers (MUXs) on a single common signal path from the single MEMS sensor element. In addition, various methods of generating multiple output signals having different output signal electrical characteristics from a single MEMS sensor element are described.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for implementing optical image stabilization (OIS) in a mobile device. One or more functions associated with OIS may be performed by hardware and/or processing resources that are provided independently of a camera unit.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for stabilizing digital images. Sensor representing a condition of the portable device may be obtained and used to classify a context of the portable device based at least in part on the sensor data. One or more stabilization parameters may be determined based on the context and used to stabilize an image captured from an image sensor of the portable device.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for reading data from the burst cutting area of a digital video disc. The present location of an optical head assembly is determined. The distance from the present location of the optical head assembly to the burst cutting area is calculated. The optical head assembly is moved by the calculated distance toward the burst cutting area. Data stored in the burst cutting area is read. The read data is checked for error. Repeat until there is no error in the data.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for transferring optical data from a DVD in response to a request from a host. When a data request is issued, a portion of the request containing the target ID for the target data block is used by a comparator circuit to locate the target data block. Another portion of the request containing the number of data blocks requested is used by a monitoring circuit to monitor data block transfer from a DVD to a data buffer once the target data block is located. The monitoring circuit stops data transfer when all of the requested data blocks have been transferred. Each data block is transferred into a data buffer containing areas separated by pointers. In a scratch area of the data buffer, the data block is error corrected, error checked and descrambled.
