    Abstract: A system and method of performing temperature compensation based on temperature of a crystal. An integrated circuit includes a clock circuit, a memory, an interface developing a sense voltage indicative of a temperature of the crystal, and a controller. The memory stores compensation values including nominal values based on a nominal third order polynomial that defines a nominal frequency versus temperature relationship of a crystal design representing multiple crystals, and a pair of adjustment values derived from two temperature-frequency error points. The controller determines a temperature value based on the sense voltage, calculates a frequency offset using the temperature value and the compensation values to solve a compensated third order polynomial defining a compensated frequency versus temperature relationship of the crystal, and adjusts a clock signal of the clock circuit using the frequency offset. A Wi-Fi device may be optimized for industrial IoT operating within an extended temperature range.

    Abstract: A wireless transceiver including a receiver circuit coupled to an RF transceiver node, a tunable notch filter coupled between the RF transceiver node and a reference node, and a controller that programs the tunable notch filter with a selected blocker frequency and that selectively enables the tunable notch filter to attenuate at least one blocker signal. The tunable notch filter may include a variable capacitor and an inductor coupled in series between the RF transceiver node and ground. The inductor of the tunable notch filter may include a bondwire coupled between a semiconductor die and a semiconductor package. The inductance may include a physical inductor mounted on the package or a printed circuit board. The tunable notch filter may be enabled by a switch selectively coupling the filter to either the RF transceiver node or ground. The variable capacitor may be digitally programmed with digital values stored in a memory.

    Abstract: Die-to-die communication links for receiver integrated circuit dies within multi-die systems and related methods are disclosed for radio frequency (RF) receivers. The disclosed embodiments provide die-to-die communication links that allow for direct communication of operating parameters between receiver integrated circuit dies and other integrated circuit dies within a multi-die system so that the operation of receive path circuitry can be adjusted without requiring intervention from an external host processor integrated circuit. A variety of operating parameter information can be communicated through the die-to-die communication links so that the integrated circuit dies can quickly adjust to changing signal conditions without requiring intervention by the external host processor integrated circuit.
