USB apparatus suitable for interconnection with a USB host having a D&#x2212; bus coupled to ground via a pull-down resistance, the USB apparatus including a microcontroller having a first port and a second port, the first port being coupled via a resistance to a voltage source and a switch, operated by the microcontroller via the second port, selectably interconnecting the first port and the bus of the USB host.

USB apparatus and embedded system incorporating same

RFID transmission circuitry including a transmission module producing a pulsed output, a first threshold circuit providing a pulsed output including only pulses whose amplitude exceeds a first threshold level, a second threshold circuit providing a pulsed output including only pulses whose amplitude exceeds a second threshold level, which is less than the first threshold level, a gate circuit operative to provide a logic output in response to each clock input, the logic output being responsive to the presence or absence of a signal input pulse thereat, a power amplifier receiving the pulsed output of the transmission module and the logic output from the gate circuit as a gain control input and providing an amplified output responsive to the gain control input and an antenna which is driven by an input derived from the amplified output.

RFID transmission circuitry

A data bus of a DVD+RW recorder between a DSP and a SDRAM usually needs a multilayer wiring board. In order to simplify the layout of the wiring board of the data bus there is provided a method for connecting at least a first and a second integrated circuit by providing the first integrated circuit having a plurality of first logical I/O ports physically arranged in a first order at the periphery, and providing the second integrated circuit having a plurality of second logical I/O ports physically arranged in a second order at the periphery, wherein each first I/O port is to be connected to one of said second I/O ports. The first and second I/O logical ports are connected independently from the first and/or second physical order, so that connection lines do not cross each other.
