    Abstract: An analog duty-cycle detector includes: off-time detection circuitry; on-time detection circuitry; compare circuitry; and a controller. The off-time detection circuitry includes a first transistor and a first capacitor. The on-time detection circuitry includes a second transistor and a second capacitor. The compare circuitry has a first terminal, a second terminal, and a third terminal. The first terminal of the compare circuitry is coupled to a first terminal of the first capacitor. The second terminal of the compare circuitry is coupled to a first terminal of the second capacitor. The controller has a first terminal and a second terminal. The first terminal of the controller coupled to a control terminal of the first transistor. The second terminal of the controller coupled to the control terminal of the second transistor.

    Abstract: An input/output (I/O) interface includes a resistance-to-current (R/I) converter; an internal resistor; first, second, and third current sources; first and second diodes; and a comparator. The R/I converter is coupled to an I/O pin and generates an output current based on an external resistance at the I/O pin during an analog operating mode. The internal resistor is coupled to the I/O pin and to ground. The first current source is coupled to the R/I converter circuit. The first diode is coupled to the R/I converter and to the I/O pin. The second current source is coupled to the R/I converter and the first diode and to ground. The second diode is coupled to the I/O pin and to the third current source. The comparator has inputs coupled to the I/O pin and to a reference voltage, and outputs a control signal indicative of a digital operating mode.

    Abstract: An on-off keying (OOK) receiver circuit includes a band-pass filter and an envelope detector. The band-pass filter includes a high-pass filter, a low-pass filter, and a switch. The high-pass filter is configured to filter an OOK input signal. The low-pass filter is configured to filter an output signal of the high-pass filter. The switch is coupled to an output of the high-pass filter, and is configured to, with each cycle of the OOK input signal, dissipate energy stored in the band-pass filter. The envelope detector is configured to receive a filtered OOK input signal from the band-pass filter, and to generate an OOK output signal based on the filtered OOK input signal.
