A method and apparatus for selective programmable filtering using analog circuits with time-varying components (e.g., resistances, capacitances) is presented. An analog front end receives an electronic signal and filters said signal by a passive or active continuous-time filter, having a combination of equivalent memory-less (e.g., resistive) and memory (e.g., capacitive or inductive) elements. A variable resistor circuit allows switching through a range of values to control one or more of the equivalent resistances of the passive or active continuous-time filter. The variable resistors are controlled using a control circuit to periodically modulate the resistances in the continuous-time filter between periodic sampling instances, such as during analog to digital conversion. Such periodic modulation of the resistances in the continuous-time filter allows for the programming and enhancement of the selectivity of said filter.

The camera unit only can be started under the working scene required to use, otherwise, the original closing state can be kept; thus the method effectively avoids the unnecessary power dissipation loss caused by starting the camera unit when the camera unit is not required to use, and further reduces the power dissipation level of the camera unit and improves the power dissipation control effect.

The invention discloses a true random number generation method and device with a detection and correction function. A random number is taken as an important component of a cryptosystem and is widely applied to a security system. The random number comprises a session key, an initial vector and a digital signature. The device is composed of an entropy source module, a sampling module, an XOR logic gate, a cellular finite state machine, a test module, a CPU and a selection controller. The entropy source module is composed of two identical oscillator structures. Each oscillator is a chaotic oscillator structure based on an autonomous Boolean network. The entropy source module can generate wide spectrum and high bandwidth chaotic signals. After a random sequence is tested through the test module, whether the sequence passes the test or not is judged through the CPU. The sequence is directly output if the sequence passes the test. Data is returned and enters a postprocessing module through an XOR circuit if the sequence does not pass the test. Moreover, a selection controller selects different postprocessing modes to process the data. The processed data enters the test module for test again, until the data passes the test. A random code sequence generated by the invention can pass a random number industry standard test.
