Abstract:
A biometric module implemented on a single integrated circuit chip is configured to perform processing as part of a function associated with a device that performs contactless communication with a terminal. The module comprises a power-harvesting unit to induce a voltage from a wireless signal received at an antenna of the device; one or more components configured to process functions in the digital domain; one or more components configured to process functions in the analogue domain; and first and second voltage regulators each having inputs for receiving an input voltage induced by the power-harvesting unit. The first voltage regulator outputs a first voltage to the components processing functions in the analogue domain and the second voltage regulator outputs a second voltage lower than the first voltage to the components processing functions in the digital domain.

Claim (Index 10):
A biometric module as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the circuitry comprises shut-down circuitry operable to cause the first voltage regulator to enter a non-operative state, and wherein the controller unit is configured to activate the shut-down circuitry to thereby cause the first voltage regulator to enter its non-operative state in response to determining that a block of upcoming processing is to be performed only by components operating in the digital domain.
