Abstract
A transponder circuit for receiving and processing an ASK signal having modulated communication information is provided. The transponder circuit includes a data receiver configured to receive the ASK signal. A reference clock extractor coupled to the data receiver is configured to extract a reference clock signal from the ASK signal. An amplitude determination unit is coupled to the data receiver and the reference clock extractor, and is configured to determine at least one amplitude value of the received ASK signal in at least one clock cycle of the extracted reference clock signal based on the extracted reference block. A processing unit, which is coupled to the amplitude determination unit, processes the amplitude value such that the communication information is retrieved.
