摘要： A differential communication bus comprising a master module and a plurality of slave modules connected to at least first and second conductors whereby to communicate between the master and slave modules. The master module comprises a driver for applying first and second voltages respectively to the first and second conductors and for sourcing and sinking currents in the first and second conductors. The driver controls a difference between the first and second voltages and a common mode value of the first and second voltages. The driver includes first sourcing and sinking current limiters and second sourcing and sinking current limiters for limiting the currents in the first and second conductors. The master module is selectively responsive to a fault condition triggering simultaneous activation of the first and second sourcing current limiters or of the first and second sinking current limiters to disable the driver.

摘要： A vibration gyroscope circuitry (VCIRC) connectable to a vibrating MEMS gyroscope (VMEMS). The circuitry comprises drive circuitry (DRIVE) arranged to drive, when the circuitry is connected, the vibration MEMS gyroscope (VMEMS) and a measurement unit (DMU) which provides a drive measurement voltage signal (DMV) forming a measure of a displacement of a mass along a drive axis. A sense circuitry (SENSE) is arranged to process a sense measurement signal of the vibration MEMS gyroscope (VMEMS) forming a measure for a displacement of the mass along a sense axis. A digital sample clock generator (SCG) is arranged to generate a sample clock signal (SCLK) from an input signal (FDxy) derivable from a drive measurement voltage signal (DMV). The sample clock generator (SCG) comprises an oscillator (HFOSC) arranged to generate a master clock (MOSC), and a counter unit (OSCCNTR) arranged to count master clock periods during one period of the input signal. The clock generator also comprises a number count monitor (NCM) arranged to determine during how many input signal periods the number count stays constant, and to compare the number of constant periods (Ncp) with a critical number of constant periods (Ncp_crit). A frequency shifter (FSH) will trigger the oscillator to shift the master clock frequency whenever the number count monitor (NCM) has determined that the number of constant periods (Ncp) exceeds the critical number of constant periods (Ncp_crit).

摘要： An analog-to-digital (A/D) converter suitable for use with redundant signed digit (RSD) coverter stages is provided with an out-of-range (OOR) detection circuit. If an out-of-range input signal is detected, the detection circuit identifies the OOR condition so that the converter can take remedial action. Examples of remedial action may include adjusting the gain of one or more converter stages, adjusting the analog input signal provided to one or more converter stages, and/or adjusting the digital output of the converter to reflect the OOR condition. The ORR detection circuit may receive its input from a converter stage that is distinct from the stage providing the most significant bit (MSB) of the digital output to preserve the resolution of the most significant bit.
