A device for interfacing with multiple different types of network access points includes multiple power amplifiers, a switch and a power detecting circuit. The power amplifiers are configured to provide corresponding signals associated with the different types of network access points, each signal having at least one parameter different than a corresponding parameter in another signal. The switch is configured to select one of the signals to provide an output signal. The power detecting circuit is configured to detect power of the output signal, and includes multiple states corresponding to the multiple different types of network access points. The power detecting circuit outputs a voltage level within the same voltage range for the signals in response to the multiple states corresponding to the different types of network access points with which the signals are associated.

Cross-coupled first and second helical inductors formed in an IC. The cross-coupled first and second helical inductors comprise a first helical conductor having a first portion and a second portion, and a second helical conductor having a first portion and a second portion. The second helical conductor is in close proximity to the first helical conductor. The first helical inductor is formed by the first portion of the first helical conductor and the second portion of the second helical conductor. The second helical inductor is formed by the second portion of the first helical conductor and the first portion of the second helical conductor.

Methods and systems for generating and synchronizing multiple clocks are disclosed herein that have extremely low skew across multiple channels and latency that is both minimal and well-defined. A phase-locked loop circuit generates a plurality of clock signals to synchronize channel circuits that receive core data streams. The channel circuits convert the core data streams into serial data streams. The phase-locked loop circuit or another phase-locked loop circuit generates a core clock signal for the registered transfer of the core data streams to the channel circuits. One or more of the plurality of clock signals may be distributed to the channel circuits by a register-to-register transfer.
