Abstract
A passive interface for connecting an electronic memory device to an exterior circuit is provided. The passive interface includes a signal connection point, a power connection point and a ground connection point on an electronic memory device. A first passive component forms an electrical connection between the signal connection point and the power connection point. A second passive component forms an electrical connection between the power connection point and the ground connection point. And the power connection point receives a conditioned voltage signal through the electrical connection between the signal connection point and the power connection point. Such a passive interface can be used in a variety of devices, including headsets for intrinsically save applications.
