    Abstract: In one aspect, an apparatus includes: a first time-to-data converter (TDC) to oversample a first duration of incoming data and hold the oversampled first duration during receipt of a second duration of the incoming data; a second TDC to oversample the second duration of the incoming data and hold the oversampled second duration during receipt of a third duration of the incoming data; a processing circuit coupled to the first and second TDCs, the processing circuit including a first filter to filter the oversampled first duration and the oversampled second duration and generate a control output therefrom; and a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) coupled to the processing circuit to receive the control output and generate a recovery clock signal therefrom.

    Abstract: A power amplifier for a radio frequency transceiver including a driver, a disable circuit, and a bias circuit. The driver includes a source node for receiving a drive voltage when enabled and includes an output node that is susceptible to strong blocker signals when disabled. The bias circuit includes first and second bias nodes for driving the voltage level of the source and output nodes, respectively, to suitable bias voltage levels to minimize impact of blocker signals. The disable circuit includes switch circuits to couple the driver to the bias circuit in the disable mode. The bias circuit may include at least one voltage source. The bias circuit may be coupled to a supply voltage and may include a voltage divider coupled between the source and output nodes. The bias circuit may include a source-follower circuit to isolate the bias voltages from variations of the supply voltage.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a first plurality of circuits receiving a first internal power supply voltage, a first regulator receiving an external power supply voltage and supplying the first internal power supply voltage at a first rated power in response to the external power supply voltage when the integrated circuit is in an active mode, a second regulator receiving the external power supply voltage for supplying the first internal power supply voltage at a second rated power less than said first rated power in response to the external power supply voltage when the integrated circuit is in a low power mode, and a controller controlling a transition of the integrated circuit between the active mode and the low power mode. The controller activates all of the first plurality of circuits in the active mode, but only a subset of them while keeping remaining ones inactive in the low power mode.
