Abstract: Apparatus and methods provide predistortion for a phased array. Radio frequency (RF) sample signals from phased array elements are provided along return paths and are combined by a hardware RF combiner. Phase shifters are adjusted such that the RF sample signals are phase-aligned when combined. Adaptive adjustment of predistortion for the amplifiers of the phased array can be based on a signal derived from the combined RF sample signals.

Abstract: A transfer printing method is described that can be used for a wide variety of materials, such as to allow for circuits formed of different materials to be integrated together on a single integrated circuit. A tether (18) is formed on dice regions (16) of a first wafer (30), followed by attachment of a second wafer (32) to the tethers. The dice regions (16) are processed so as to be separated, followed by transfer printing of the dice regions to a third wafer (34).

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses for improving reliability and/or reducing or preventing breakdown of an amplifier, specifically breakdown of a transistor of an amplifier, are disclosed. A protection circuit can be electrically coupled to the amplifier, and can be configured to reduce a voltage swing at the amplifier. The amplifier can include a first transistor, and the protection circuit can include a second transistor electrically coupled to a control terminal of the first transistor of the amplifier. When a power at a control terminal of the second transistor of the protection circuit satisfies a threshold power, the protection circuit can be configured to reduce a power at a power terminal of the first transistor the amplifier. By reducing the voltage at the power terminal of the first transistor the amplifier, the protection circuit can allow the amplifier to operate safely, without breakdown.

Abstract: A continuous-time sampler has series-connected delay lines with intermediate output taps between the delay lines. Signal from an output tap can be buffered by an optional voltage buffer for performance. A corresponding controlled switch is provided with each output tap to connect the output tap to an output of the continuous-time sampler. The delay lines store a continuous-time input signal waveform within the propagation delays. Controlling the switches corresponding to the output taps with pulses that match the propagation delays can yield a same input signal value at the output. The continuous-time sampler effectively “holds” or provides the input signal value at the output for further processing without requiring switched-capacitor circuits that sample the input signal value onto some capacitor. In some cases, the continuous-time sampler can be a recursively-connected delay line. The continuous-time sampler can be used as the front end sampler in a variety of analog-to-digital converters.

Abstract: A gas sensor package is disclosed. The gas sensor package can include a housing defining a first chamber and a second chamber. An electrolyte can be provided in the first chamber. A gas inlet can provide fluid communication between the second chamber and the outside environs. The gas inlet can be configured to permit gas to enter the second chamber from the outside environs. An integrated device die can be mounted to the housing. The integrated device die can comprise a sensing element configured to detect the gas. The integrated device die can have a first side exposed to the first chamber and a second side exposed to the second chamber, with the first side opposite the second side.

Abstract: Techniques to generate two separate temperature independent reference voltages. The reference voltages can be generated using a chain of ΔVBE cells. A cross-quad ΔVBE-cell-based bandgap voltage reference can cancel out noise of associated current sources by forcing them to correlate. Several ΔVBE stages can be cascaded together to generate an appreciable PTAT component that can cancel the CTAT component from VBE. In some example configurations, only BJTs are used—without requiring use of an amplifier—to generate the bandgap voltages; in this way, extremely low noise voltage references can be generated. The PTAT and the CTAT voltages can be combined to generate a bandgap voltage of approximately VG0 or approximately 2VG0.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for an integrated circuit, current loop interface that can receive and extract a high-frequency digital communication signal from a low-frequency analog current signal using a complex impedance circuit. The complex impedance circuit can allow for low input impedance at the lower frequencies of the analog current signal and high input impedance at the higher frequencies of the digital communication signal.

Abstract: A device for providing a reset signal to one or more sequential logic circuits in an electronic system responsive to a supply voltage condition includes a first voltage detector circuit to generate a first pulse after the supply voltage rises to a first threshold voltage level. The device further includes a second voltage detector circuit to generate a second pulse after the supply voltage falls below a second threshold voltage level. The device additionally includes a latch circuit to store a first value based on the first pulse after the supply voltage rises to the first threshold voltage level, disable the first voltage detector circuit after storing the first value, reset to store a second value based on the second pulse after the supply voltage falls below the second threshold voltage level, and to disable the second voltage detector circuit after the resetting.
