20110050389 | LOW POWER WIRELESS CONTROLLER SYSTEMS AND METHODS - A wireless control device is described that single chip passive wireless control integrated circuit device. The device is coupled to an antenna configured to receive a radio signal and comprises a radio frequency transceiver circuit fabricated on a semiconductor substrate of an integrated circuit device and configured to extract information from the radio signal and a processor fabricated on the semiconductor substrate and configured to receive the information extracted from the radio signal and to respond to a command encoded in the information. A FET fabricated on the substrate operates as a switch and has a gate controlled by the processor. The FET can be configured to transmit an activation current provided to the integrated circuit device to an output of the integrated circuit device. The output may drive an actuator. | 03-03-2011 |
20110006898 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PREVENTION OF THEFT OF LED LIGHT BULBS - A merchandise control device is described that can be attached to a light emitting diode (“LED”) light bulb. A radio frequency identification (“RFID”) circuit located within the LED light bulb is configured to respond to an interrogating radio frequency (RF) signal at a point of sale. An antenna provided on an external surface of the LED light bulb, or on a sheet attached to the LED light bulb, has an electrical connection that communicates the RF signal to the RFID device. The RFID device is configured to enable function of the LED light bulb upon receiving a security code from the RF signal that matches a security code stored in the RFID device. | 01-13-2011 |
