Provided is a contactless connector that includes an antenna system and a wireless transceiver coupled to the antenna system and configured to simultaneously transmit a transmission signal and receive a received signal through the antenna system. The wireless transceiver includes a transformer, a wide-band phase shifter and a combiner. The transformer has a primary coil with a center tap to which the transmission signal is coupled and a first end that is coupled to the antenna system. The transmission signal also is coupled to an input of the wide-band phase shifter. The transformer also has a secondary coil, an output of the secondary coil is coupled to a first input of the combiner, an output of the wide-band phase shifter is coupled to a second input of a combiner, and an output of the combiner provides a self-interference-canceled version of the received signal.

Full-duplex contactless connectors

A redriver includes a plurality of channels coupled to an interface, a number of detectors coupled to the plurality of channels, and a controller that determines an orientation of the interface based on states detected by the number of detectors. The controller determines that the interface is in a first orientation when a first combination of states is detected for the plurality of channels, and determines that the interface is in a second orientation when a second combination of states is detected for the plurality of channels.

Redriver to autonomously detect cable orientation

Embodiments of a method and a device are disclosed. In an embodiment, an electronic device includes a plurality of input ports configured to receive at least two serial communication signals, an encoder circuit configured to encode the at least two serial communication signals based on signal edges of the at least two serial communication signals to generate an encoded serial communication signal, the encoded serial communication signal enabling reconstruction of the at least two serial communication signals independent of a clock signal, and a transmitter configured to transmit the encoded serial communication signal.

Method and system for asynchronous serialization of multiple serial communication signals

A protocol can specifie a power-sourcing voltage range that indicates power sourcing capabilities. Additional power sourcing capabilities can be communicated using voltage variations within the power-sourcing voltage range. A power-sourcing device can provide power to an external power-sinking device over a wired connection containing a plurality of wires. A voltage control circuit can be configured to drive a voltage over a wire of the plurality of wires. Processing circuitry can communicate, using the voltage control circuit, first power-sourcing capabilities to the external power-sinking device by setting the voltage over the wire to a value within the power-sourcing voltage range. The processing circuitry can also communicate, using the voltage control circuit, the additional power sourcing capabilities of the power-sourcing device using voltage variations on the wire, the voltage variations maintaining voltage on the wire within the power-sourcing voltage range.

Communications for power delivery solutions

Various exemplary embodiments relate to a function selector device in a system using a DisplayPort protocol over a universal serial bus (USB) mechanical interface, including: a first port configured to transmit/receive a USB SSTX signal; a second port configured to transmit/receive a USB SSRX signal; a third port configured to transmit/receive a DisplayPort lane signal; a fourth port configured to transmit/receive a DisplayPort AUX signal; a fifth port configured to transmit/receive a DisplayPort HPD signal; a sixth port configured to connect to SSTX pins of a USB 3.0 receptacle; and a seventh port configured to connect to SSRX pins of a USB 3.0 receptacle.
