`‘674 Patent – Claim 1
`
`1. A multiple supply voltage device comprising:
`a core network operative at a first supply voltage; and
`a control network coupled to said core network wherein said control
`network is configured to transmit a control signal, said control network
`comprising: an up/down (up/down) detector configured to detect a power
`state of said core network; processing circuitry coupled to said up/down
`detector and configured to generate said control signal based on said power
`state;
`one or more feedback circuits coupled to said up/down detector, said one or
`more feedback circuits configured to provide feedback signals to adjust a
`current capacity of said up/down detector;
`at least one first transistor coupled to a second supply voltage, the at least
`one first transistor being configured to switch on when said first supply
`voltage is powered down and to switch off when said first supply voltage is
`powered on;
`at least one second transistor coupled in series with the at least one first
`transistor and coupled to said first supply voltage, the at least one second
`transistor being configured to switch on when said first supply voltage is
`powered on and to switch off when said first supply voltage is powered
`down;
`at least one third transistor coupled in series between the at least one first
`transistor and the at least one second transistor.

`
`Steinacker includes no mention of hysteresis or feedback.
`Steinacker does not need to be “optimized… for power supplies with slow
`turn-on profiles” based on Doyle.
`
`Steinacker does not suggests that leakage current is a problem, and the
`POSA would have no reason to look to Park.
`
`Petitioner has not explained why the POSA would allegedly apply Park’s
`forced stacking technique to some transistors in Steinacker, but not others.
`
`The POSA would not be motivated to choose Park’s forced stack technique
`over its sleepy stack technique.
