Abstract: A click-noise suppression system having MOSFET transistor switches positioned between the preamplifiers and coupling capacitors of an audio system wherein the suppression system maintains the switches off when the system is turned on until a charging circuit increases the gate voltage of the switches. The switches quickly turn off and the coupling capacitors are discharged through discharge resistors when the system is turned off.

Abstract: A low power monolithic CMOS device incorporating functions to control power supply transition noise such as in audio circuits and systems. The digital control circuit incorporates MOSFETs that are maintained in an OFF state during normal operation and are turned ON only when system power is turned on or off to thus eliminate the need for bias voltages and maintain minimal quiescent current.

Abstract: A radio frequency identification device includes a transceiver having a resonant circuit, a rectifier, a charge pump, a state machine, and a transmitter. The resonant circuit includes an antenna and has a resonant frequency. The rectifier is coupled to the resonant circuit to provide a rectified signal in response to energy from the antenna. The charge pump is enabled in response to the rectified signal to provide a first logic signal. The state machine provides a second logic signal in response to the first logic signal. The transmitter includes an amplifier coupled to the resonant circuit to form a Colpitts oscillator that is enabled by the second logic signal to transmit a response signal for identifying the radio frequency identification device.
