  • Extraction of a binary code based on physical parameters of an integrated circuit
    Publication number: 20030151942
    Abstract: An integrated cell for extracting a binary value based on a value difference between two resistors values, comprising: connection means for a binary reading of the sign of the difference between said resistors; and connection means for a modification of the value of one of said resistors to make said sign of the difference invariable.
    Type: Application

  • Demodulator for an amplitude-modulated alternating signal
    Publication number: 20030128070
    Abstract: The invention concerns a demodulator of an amplitude-modulated signal (Vdb), characterised in that it comprises a peak detecting cell (DCR) capable of extracting the reference modulating signal (Vpeak1) of the modulated signal (Vdb); a first demodulator (FE) adapted to detect the peak of the reference modulating signal (Vpeak1) to generate a high comparison threshold and locate the start of the modulation, a second demodulator (RE) adapted to detect a trough of the reference modulating signal (Vpeak1) to generate a low comparison threshold and locate the end of the modulation; a logic processing unit capable of supplying the demodulated signal (Vdemod).
