A method for modifying the frequency of a clock signal clocking an integrated circuit supplied by a voltage controller, comprises, in response to a command for the modification, varying the frequency of the clock signal at a rate allowing a supply voltage to be controlled by the controller. The variation comprises at least one series of successive divisions of the frequency of the clock signal into successive intermediate signals of respective intermediate frequencies.

Apparatus and methods remove a voltage offset from an electrical signal, specifically a biomedical signal. A signal is received at a first operational amplifier and is amplified by a gain. An amplitude of the signal is monitored, by a first pair of diode stages coupled to an output of the first operational amplifier, for the voltage offset. The amplitude of the signal is then attenuated by the first pair of diode stages and a plurality of timing banks. The attenuating includes limiting charging, by the first pair of diode stages, of the plurality of timing banks and setting a time constant based on the charging. The attenuating removes the voltage offset persisting at a threshold for a duration of at least the time constant. Saturation of the signal is limited to a saturation recovery time while the saturated signal is gradually pulled into monitoring range over the saturation recovery time.

Systems, apparatus, and methods are disclosed for conveying signals between a patient and monitoring and treatment devices. An EP system provides large-signal input protection and RF ablation signal noise suppression while preserving the integrity of relevant components of small signals. The EP system has a low-noise amplifier topology with minimal hardware filtering. An input protection circuit shunts to ground signals with amplitude above an ablation voltage. An RF filter circuit linearly attenuates the signals between 300 kHz and 600 kHz. A low-frequency feedback circuit drives a common mode node of the RF filter circuit for additional attenuation. A signal amplification circuit amplifies the signals between 0.01 Hz and 1000 Hz. A fast recovery circuit feeds back a low-frequency voltage signal to the signal amplification circuit to gradually reduce offset voltage of the signals. A high-resolution A/D converter converts the signals from the signal amplification circuit to clean digital signals.
