Patents by Inventor Prajwala Puttappa

Prajwala Puttappa has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20240028540
    Abstract: Various configurations of high-speed data communication devices, e.g., repeaters, interfacing between a host and a peripheral, and methods of operating the same, are provided to improve the Remote Wake sequence. Repeaters include circuitry to detect the start of Resume signaling or the end of Resume, following initiation of Remote Wake. In an example, pull-up resistors coupled to upstream differential signal lines and a detection circuit with a current source are controlled to detect the start of Resume signaling. In another example, the upstream-side pull-resistors and an enable signal to an upstream-side transmitter are controlled to detect the end of Resume.

  • Publication number: 20230111096
    Abstract: In an example, a method of operating a repeater having an isolation barrier to isolate a host side of the repeater from a peripheral side of the repeater, the repeater operable to be coupled to a universal serial bus (USB), includes causing the host side to enter into a suspend mode. The method also includes, responsive to entering the suspend mode, disabling a host isolation transceiver at the host side. The method includes periodically enabling the host isolation transceiver to transmit a data signal from the host side to the peripheral side. The method includes exiting the suspend mode. The method also includes enabling the host isolation transceiver.
