<p>Power reception circuits employable in portable data devices (e.g., smart cards) to derive power and/or data from an input AC power signal (e.g., an ASK modulated carrier signal). In one embodiment, the power reception circuit comprises a power rectifier (120), a shunt rectifier (142) and a shunting element (132). The power rectifier (120) is adapted to rectify the input power signal, yielding a rectified output waveform. The shunt rectifier (142) is connected in parallel with the power rectifier (120). The shunting element (132) is connected to the shunt rectifier (142) and is operable to regulate an output voltage or current waveform produced at the output of the power rectifier (120). In another embodiment, the power reception circuit includes an analog circuit (610) for recovering data from a modulated carrier signal. A decoupling device (630) isolates the analog circuit (610) from impedance variations of a load. A shunt device (640) diverts undesired current from the load.</p> |
