20100141355ARRAY OF COUPLED RESONATORS, BANDPASS FILTER AND OSCILLATOR - This array (06-10-2010
20100144270Portable object inductively coupled to a fixed station and comprising gain control means - The portable object is equipped with an antenna inductively coupled to a fixed station of a remote transmission device. The portable object comprises a variable load impedance and a rectifier connected in parallel to the terminals of the antenna, a regulation loop of the voltage at the terminals of the load impedance, connected between the output of the rectifier and a control terminal of the load impedance. The regulation loop comprises, in series, means for determining a difference between a setpoint voltage and the output voltage of the rectifier, a one-bit analog-to-digital converter, and command means of integrator type. The command means comprise a gain control input connected to an output of the gain control means receiving on input signals representative of the difference. Demodulation means are connected to the output of the converter.06-10-2010
20100219893RESONANT DEVICE WITH IMPROVED FEATURES - The device resonant comprises a plurality of synchronized oscillators. Each oscillator comprises a resonator which comprises detection means providing detection signals representative of oscillation of the resonator to a feedback loop connected to an excitation input of the resonator. The detection signals control the conductivity of the feedback loop of the oscillator. The excitation inputs of all the resonators are connected to a common point which constitutes the output of the resonant device. A capacitive load is connected between said common point and a reference voltage.09-02-2010
20100219895TRANSISTOR-BASED MICROMETRIC OR NANOMETRIC RESONANT DEVICE - The resonant device comprises an electromechanical resonator of nanometric or micrometric size that comprises a mobile element and a fixed element. Detection means provide detection signals representative of movement of the mobile element with respect to the fixed element to a feedback loop that is connected to an excitation input of the resonator. The resonator is formed on the same substrate as the detection means and feedback loop. The feedback loop comprises at most first and second transistors connected in series between a reference voltage and the excitation terminal. A capacitive load is connected between the excitation terminal and reference voltage. The detection signals control the conductivity of the first transistor.09-02-2010
20100219897OSCILLATOR BASED ON SERIES OF FOUR NANOWIRES - The oscillator comprises at least a first series of a multiple of four sub-assemblies each of which comprises an excitation terminal and an output terminal. The sub-assemblies are arranged in series in a closed loop. The output terminal of each sub-assembly is connected to the excitation terminal of the following sub-assembly. The output terminal of one of the sub-assemblies constitutes the output terminal of the oscillator. Each sub-assembly comprises excitation means and a nanowire which constitutes the electromechanical resonator and the piezoresistive detection means of movement of the resonator. A first terminal of the nanowire is connected to a first supply voltage. The second terminal of the nanowire constitutes the output terminal of the sub-assembly which is grounded via a corresponding resistive circuit. An input terminal of the excitation means constitutes the excitation terminal of the sub-assembly.09-02-2010
